Have to admit I am so confused with this. Diagnosed type 2 in February 2016. The only real issue I have is with my feet. I was told I have to look after them and fair enough I understand that but then again shouldn't everyone anyway whether you are Diabetic or not? Anyway, I went to buy a...

I love this post. I posted on here a couple of days ago that I have a problem taking type 2 seriously. I don't mean any disrespect to anyone or in fact the condition. For me it would be like sitting around every day thinking "well that's another hour nearer the grave". Life is for living and...

I do treat anything with respect including a cold but I'm not letting it take over my life :)

I was diagnosed type 2 in February 2016. The Dr said 1 Metformin, Nurse said 2. I take 1 as I don't really want to take any. My issue is that I feel I should be more worried than I am but I won't let this rule my life. I changed to LCHF & a lot of weight fell I off & my blood readings...

I love this forum because I learn more on here than anywhere else. Thank you all so much & I will invest in a meter. Bless you all

Thank you so much for the replies. My life is a gentle one & very spiritual & one thing that I'm passionate about is finding positives in everything. My belief is that if there is no positive there can be no negative because they need each other to survive so my post shows my positive. Moving...

Please don't be upset with me for posting this but I'm confused with myself. I was diagnosed type 2 in February this year & my attitude was & still is "yep & now what". I need to lose a lot of weight & have lost 2 stone. Since January I put myself on LCHF to lose weight. My blood counts fell...

This is why I love this site, everyone is so kind. I am still very overweight & have a long way to go but I have taken responsibility for my T2. I had just started on Paleolithic eating & if I had ignored my slightly blurred vision I would have been none the wiser. I now eat very low carbs...

Thank you for your kind comments

I just want to put my first lot of blood results on here because the support & advice I've had from this site has been amazing. I was diagnosed in February this year. My HB1C was 100 & my cholesterol was quite high. My recent test was: Cholesterol 4.2 HB1C 48 Liver & kidney function is...

I love this site because there is always someone there to help. Thank you all so much.

Hi Chichi, I starts Paleolithic eating in January & have so far lost 17lbs & heaps of fat. I also started using a MUCH smaller plate. Wherever possible I also eat with my fingers which brings an intimacy with you & food. I do eat a few beans though so I'm not strict Paleolithic. I don't eat...

Thank you all so much. I was only diagnosed in February but had just started Paleolithic eating. I'm not strict on it as I make my own decisions but I do eat very low carb. I've lost 17lbs since January so I'm very pleased. Dr put me on 1 Metformin but the Nurse wanted me on 2. I stuck with...

I am on a low carb diet & apart from my breakfast at 10.00hrs when I have an apple or a banana & my Easiyo yoghurt after dinner i'm quite strict with it. I would like to swap my 10.00hrs fruit with 2 hard boiled eggs but I've just researched this and have found that eggs can be bad for type 2...

Thank you everyone. Some good ideas in there. I don't eat breakfast as I have a power coffee made with coconut oil but I need a top up around 10.00hrs.

Sounds delicious

I eat a low carb diet but I do have either a banana or a couple of apples for breakfast (10.00hrs). I saw on here somewhere that these are full of sugar so what does everyone else eat for mid morning snacks?

This all got a bit confusing for me and I hope someone can answer a simple question please. I eat Paleolithic. I was diagnosed type 2 in February & have already turned it on its head by eating this way. I have drastically cut my portion sizes and have lost 22lbs. I am on 1 Metformin a day...

Thank you all so much.

Thank you all for all your valuable advice & I genuinely do take on board what everyone says. Can I just say that I was eating Paleolithic before being diagnosed so eating in this way & losing weight is my priority. I know this will probably sound daft & I'm probably being very naive but...
