Well done on the weight loss. How are you finding the diet? Do you test? If so what are your readings. Just interested in how the diet affects them. Looking forwards to reading that you've made the dream weight of 80kg.

Your dr is ignorant. There are loads of T2's on here who were not overweight, ate healthily and were fit when diagnosed.

After I was diagnosed I cut out carbs because I saw the effect of them on my bgl's. (My experience backed up what members on here had said). Apart from cutting them out I ate what I wanted to, when I wanted to and how much I wanted to eat. I eat out about 3 times per week. I lost weight and...

@Bluetit1802 How do you know that they are very young? Sorry I know that it's off topic.

If I was you I'd contact your specialist nurse about it. Don't take any risks.

I was told that she had referred me for the eye test, which in fact I had only a couple of weeks later.

Codefree is a meter that lots of people on here use because the strips are the cheapest. I'm sure that some will come along and give you more advice.

What did you want to happen? BTW I've never had my feet checked. I came away from my first DN visit with lots of paper and a booklet to read.

Thanks I may investigate.

I had lunch out again today and I thought of you as I was eating a deliciously creamy avocado salad.

Well done. Inspirational.

Don't do this. I think that with your lifestyle you are doing your best to control your bgl's and ONLY YOU know what you can manage to do and what you can't. Your lifestyle is stressful and difficult with odd hours and all that travelling. None of which help bgl's. At the same time you are...

It still amazes me. This not feeling hungry, not having the cravings and just having all this energy and yet not needing to eat. It's sort of wrong but it's so liberating and freeing. It's yet another thing that I've learned about how my body works since being diagnosed. It's great that...

Oddly enough I checked the same thing only the other day. I hoped the same thing.

You could have left some double cream out to sour.

Actually I had a raging thirst and thus frequent urination and I'm type 2. I couldn't stop being thirsty I'd drink swallow and be thirsty again. I had to take water with me all of the time I dared not run out of it.

Fabulous results.

My partner has just pointed out to me that we go with the 5% rule i.e. carbs less 5% per 100 gs. I do now occasionally have some less than 10% per 100gs but not everyday or even every week Oh and BTW if you are a coffee lover then you have it with double cream or there is something called...

Stop! I eat green beans, peas, broad beans and they don't raise my bgl's at all. WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT. Last night I had pork medallions in a double cream, mushroom, shallot, apple and dill sauce, with courgettes and cauliflower. It raised my bgl by less than 1. I was actually lower 2 hours...
