I asked him between gulps and he was diagnosed type 2 a couple of months prior. The look on the DN's face was priceless. I think she would have slapped him if he wasn't 6'6" and built like brick outhouse lol

I am half way through the X-PERT course. Although they are far more accepting of the LCHF approach nowadays, they still are a long way from advocating it fully. It is interesting to observe the other members attitudes and (generally speaking) complete lack of understanding of their condition...

10.3 here. Have the diet licked, but defo need to up the exercise as getting a little peeved at the high readings!

Thanks for all the feedback peeps. I went with this one in the end, so a special thanks john. Andy

Hi Grant, I have the soft case that comes with the meter and was wondering if anyone had found a tougher, more protective case. I carry mine around in a rucksack a lot and was concerned about sitting on it. I'll take a look through your link and see if I can find something that can withstand...

Hi all. has anyone found a suitable hard case for the SD Codefree meter? Thanks in advance Andy

Inspirational news Jennifer - mighty congratulations :)

Hi all, I've just arrived home to find a newly delivered FastClix waiting for me. I have only had my original one for 2 months and had no problems, so wondered if these companies tend to send out new prickers as a matter of course? Best A

My diabetes nurse suggested I didn't need to monitor myself. This is based on nothing more than the health service not wanting to pay out for the strips. Almost all on here have bought their own kit, with the Codefree meter being extremely popular because the strips for it are the cheapest to...

I believe chorizo only averages about 3% carbs (very low). I have just bought a whopper and intend frying it up with some chicken to make a warm salad. Until I cook it I will sleep with it under the bed and use it as protection in case I get burglars :confused: It's funny what being diagnosed...

Thank you all for responding and sharing your experiences, opinions and extensive knowledge. I'm not sitting here thinking that I have been misdiagnosed. It's more a case of wanting to check out all possibilities before my enquiring mind starts to shrivel up from lack of sugar :hungover...

I recently discovered these from Amazon Lush n Low Shirataki Noodles (Zero Carb) - 200g Only £1.30 per pack, but as stated above, they need a few rinses before cooking as they stink like old kippers :p That said, they are perfect once mixed with a nice sauce. Another new staple for my...

Napolina have increased the size of their tinned toms :p
