    Prediabetes diagnosis

    Lynn I can understand how you are feeling even if you are only pre diabetic. It is confusing and I was also told I was becoming obsessed! At the back of your mind you think "what if I don't cut carbs enough and it develops into diabetes". HOWEVER as time goes on and you can see what you are...

    Prediabetes diagnosis

    green smoothies

    The smoothies were good but I think the quantities need upping a bit, especially after seeing what everyone else puts in their's! They were OK for a week end when I had a late breakfast and didn't have to go anywhere before lunch. Yesterday I felt hungry before an hour but when I tested my...
