Thanks @Liam1955 I was indeed little more relieved after I had seen her as it felt like good news and a little less to worry about. I still have a lot to do but ultimately losing the weight will help in all areas both Liver and T2 so I will just keep chipping away at this larger than average...

Cheers @Chook I realise I am in this for the long haul and just trying to find that balance. So far so good with what I am doing . Increased exercise, reduced rubbish going down my gullet and sticking to around 1800-2000 calories a day for weight loss( bit not feeling hungry) LCHF seems to me...

@AloeSvea [emoji16] at this time I am still holding a fair amount or legacy carbs. If i look closely I can see years of pizza and beer clinging to my middle from my teens!!! That said I have started to shed this and the look is improving, as is the whole wellbeing thing.

@Liam1955 I just had an impromptu meeting with a liver specialist. ( mix up as I am under a different hospital but they booked me in where I had the fibroscan so I went along) Anyway in answer to your curiousness I was level 1 The lady explained there were 4 levels ( after zero e.g normal)...

All just looking for some collective thoughts/ understanding or previous examples if you have any please. I have an outstanding call with the DN for what I can only describe as tingly soles of my feet or an almost warm sensation. It's like friction, so could be to do with all the walking I am...
