    The first ever conference for PWD!

    Only a few weeks to go! I spotted this on eBay - cheap accommodation in Nottingham apparently. It might be worth checking out if you haven't booked in yet. ;)...

    Step into Spring

    Don't let it put you off. You could always slow the pace a bit (especially towards the end of the walk) and that could help keep BGs lower.

    Step into Spring

    Oooh! I was born in Wales - we could see the top of Snowdon from our house! Chilly with you I bet but very beautiful :)

    Step into Spring

    Oooh! Greek Islands. If @Clivethedrive is in one bag, can I go in the other?:playful: I'm being pretty good at the moment, running on and off. I'm not going every day because one of my dogs is getting a bit of arthritis in her foot so she gets a bit stiff after a long run. :( Never mind, I shall...

    Major Problems

    @Neil Fowkes, you might be interested to read about Liraglutide and alzheimers. http://www.alzheimers.org.uk/site/scripts/documents_info.php?documentID=1741 As I understand it there is firstly the suggestion that alzheimers is linked to insulin resistance within the brain (it is now believed...

    This is what diabetes uk tell T2 diabetics via their website...

    Hang on, doesn't that sound like it's too low in carbs for that meal? 200g tomatoes maybe 6g? 200g Baked beans 26g, 300g Tinned New potatoes 45g, onion maybe 10g, sausages could be all meat I guess. Even so, surely that's more around 80g of carb between two?. Perhaps I've got my calculations...

    There's going to be a pxss up (oops sorry) a sensible social after too.

    LOL We figured at least it's the middle of the country. If you join the Facebook group people are sharing lifts, and helping each other with accommodation etc. Shame you can't come @Robinredbreast - you are a voice of reason.:)

    This is what diabetes uk tell T2 diabetics via their website...

    :banghead: There are so many things wrong with the messaging around diabetes and how it is currently treated. Pity the poor folk who don't question what they're told. Guys, come along to the GBdoc Conference - there is going to be a media partner there filming people's views/concerns. Get your...

    Ahhh, perhaps you are missing the comforting stench of Deep Heat!

    You may feel that you've lost some of your fitness but hats off for doing 4 mins of fast treading water. I know that is hard work!. Big thumbs up from me!

    Step into Spring

    Man you're on fire! I think like @Jamrox I might have to get one of those too. I can do crunches just about (it counts if you lift your head off the floor right?) As for a full sit up, I can do two or three where I generally see-saw with my legs in the air trying to gain momentum before I begin...

    That's brilliant @Lenny3 !

    Step into Spring

    Lol! Your 'abs thing' - you mean stomach muscle? ;) Well done @cold ethyl , I'm assuming you have some kind of contraption that helps you to do 'crunches' safely. I really need to follow your example and do more work on my tummy.

    Step into Spring

    Blimey, go for a jog in this weather and you feel as though someone has set your lungs to 'fast freeze'! I'm thankfully getting fitter again after my epic snowy 'wipe-out' and I am trotting along with less 'hopping' and more actual 'running'. Yay!:happy: Lets hope Spring comes early so that we...

    The first ever conference for PWD!

    Hi there @s_k_s , Thanks for the question. We have tried to make the event as affordable as possible, and whilst we can't make the event free to all we won't be charging any children under the age of 5 years old. Hopefully that helps. Please do e-mail TeamBG or GBdoc if you have a particular set...

    Any way to stop spikes with strenuous exercise?

    A hill will do it @LucySW. I've know T1 cyclists on cgm (continuous glucose monitor) who just on a short sharp climb will raise their BGs a couple of points. I love the fact you like to cycle though! Keep an eye out for TeamBG cycle events this year - why not join the cycle club? We do some...

    Put your lippy on, there are going to be cameras!:bag: Conference sponsor TeamBG is bringing a media partner along to film and interview people at the conference and record what the hot topics are.
