Thank you for your support, I guess it is early days yet, I am encouraged that the weight is falling off, I still take 2 glucophage (metformin) per day, but I stopped gliclizide 6 days ago. I suppose I still have a lot of fatty stuff around the liver and pancreas, and hope that my high morning...

I dumped gliclizide when I joined this forum, did not see any point in adding more insulin, my aim is to wake up my beta cells, for my body to reduce insulin further, and get my weight and glucose to safe healthy levels. Set myself until Christmas to make the biggest changes, and want to be...

I think that a few of us need to create our own recipe thread, I know nothing about Algerian or Moroccan food,

So, single malt it is then! Lol

Tonight I sliced a pointy pepper, 6 kalamata olives and chopped one whole romaine lettuce, these were gently fried with butter, I cheated and used garlic granules, and a pinch of black pepper, I then splashed it with cider vinegar. In my air cooker ( great find) I cooked two chicken thighs skin...

Dont get me wrong, I am not a big drinker, but enjoy a drink on special occasions I.e. Birthdays, and in particular Christmas Day and New Years Eve. But what to drink this year, this is my dilemma. I like a beer, but this has the same sugar content as a mars bar, I like brandy and port, but...
