    Dang, that’s not good. You need to look at things to reduce your numbers. What has doctor said?

    NHS Shake and Soup Meal Plan Trials

    So true! I feel for the poor suckers who are out in this. People who have faith in their doctor..... like me! Or like I used to be.... now I realise I’m going to have to educate them myself!! Right, eggs and bacon for me!

    NHS Shake and Soup Meal Plan Trials

    Hi Bill, Yes I saw that in various news sources this morning! My verdict is..... what a waste of time, effort and money!!!! Also, could be dangerous as those types of diets tend to result in extreme weight loss followed by extreme weight gain..... all the whole, completely missing the real...

    Hi

    Hi, I got told I was prediabetic..... i stuck my head in the sand and assumed it’d be fine and I’d sort it at some point.... big mistake. Within a year I was dangerously in the diabetic zone. Only then did I make the changes I needed to..... damage has been done though and I wish I could go back...

    Diagnosed 2 months ago

    Hi mate, in the UK I get it from Tesco’s online delivery, it’s a green pack of 4 and it’s literally epic. There are alternatives such as packet rice, similar to uncle bens. That is ok but slightly less awesome. I have also started buying cauliflowers and then just choosing them up as best I...

    Diagnosed 2 months ago

    I just had a brunch of bacon, tomato, avocados! Delicious and took about 8 mins from brainwave to plate!!!! I would also recommend something that has made my life easier.... in the UK I can get frozen cauliflower rice. Microwaves in 4 mins and has a texture and feeling of eating rice, the frozen...

    2020/21 Football Season.

    Surprised you couldn’t afford McGreal..... we sacked him the week after he was linked to your boys. On Shamal George...... not many players leave Liverpool and sign for Col U to he must be rubbish!!! He’ll be a backup to our solid number one so will not play much except for maybe the EFL...

    Diabetes & Alcohol

    Yes, I know this to be true and I did 6 weeks teetotal. The sheer boredom of lockdown and stress of work (again, a crutch to lean on) meant I went back the other way. I think I will have to follow your path but I know it will take a huge effort.

    2020/21 Football Season.

    Struggling to see how leagues one and two can complete a season without testing? It appears they are not testing players due to the financial implications but as soon as a player is found to have tested positive for coronavirus they will Undoubtedly have to isolate the whole squad leading to...

    Diabetes & Alcohol

    Thanks Jo. Good advice, definitely regretting that poor decision now..... feel terrible today as well. It’s the hardest part for me to stop partaking in alcohol and I’ve done so well in all other areas.... I think the problem is I’m not seeing any rose when I drink..... I tested this morning...

    Feeling downhearted

    My numbers went down quite gradually but this is as you regain insulin sensitivity..... I suppose everyone is different but I would encourage going for a few months before you accept medication. I also felt pretty rubbish at first but started to even out when I got used to my diet and found out...

    Pancreas scan

    I was put forward for a pancreas scan. First one got cancelled and then I had a three month hba1c test which showed I had reduced levels from 91 to 46 through diet alone. I cancelled the test as felt that proved I am type 2...... but I’m worried that was a naive decision.

    Prescribed Metformin but wondering I can do this on diet alone

    Sounds like you’ll be fine. It’s not easy but you’re on the right path. Keep going.

    Lager ... Or red wine ?

    Wow, that’s low. I wonder how you managed that? Is there something to do with the body processing the alcohol first which causes a later spike? Or have I got that wrong?
