Re: Ultimate slimfast recipes... but won't it block the drain? :lol: mmmm G&T and baked potato with butter!

Ahhh I took it quite personally as I do have the letter that was sent to the GP and it was fabulous. I have used the link above {thanks Thirsty} and am waiting for someone to call me. I don't know where I stand with my remortgage as I am assuming that Abbey are not going to refuse me as I cannot...

I am going to ring and ask why, as it has really confused me. The mortgage adviser said there was no problem, the endo says I am controlling my BS levels too well and so I assumed that the stuff from the doctors would have been down as a glowing patient :?

Anyone know who will give life assurance to a diabetic? I have changed mortgage providers and went through the usual forms about my health. The mortgage adviser said it wouldn't be a problem me being diabetic. Then I got a letter from the assurance company saying they wanted my permission to get...

Oh how sexy does that baked potao look on his blog. I miss them nearly as much as I miss bread :)

haha Shan I have asked all my mates too and found one that wants it :)

Baby steps, that's the way as people above have said. You will get there and find something that works for you. My endo has just told me that I am controlling my diabetes too well...I took that as a compliment :D

Thanks all, I found a couple of tins at the back of my cupboard when I was having a clear out. They are still in date so was wondering if I can use them. I will check the carb on them as I can't tolerate a lot. The only food option at work today was a baked potato and I am now well regretting it...

Can us diabetics use slimfast? i notice it has sugar in it but apart from that seems ok so was wondering??

Sandy maybe we can swap as our surgery appears not to have a diabetic nurse :) Hana I have to admit I used to sit quietly in front of any doctor assuming that they are the experts....d[ but have to admit I thought I was quite a pain in the **** to him I think [didn't think of your quick retort I...

Was a very strange visit and with a different man. I asked why diabetics are advised not to drink coffee and he didn't know. I asked him what he thought of low carb and he said Atkins is dangerous. I then repeated my question with the emphasis that it is not Atkins and he said that as I am in...

Hi, I seem to be totally carb intolerant. If I eat any form of cereal for breakfast my BS levels go up to about 11. Today for example, I had cheese and an apple for breakfast, yogurt midmorning, home-made Turkey curry with a little cous-cous and a chicken and salad wrap for tea...that kept my BS...

Ahhhh...thanks for that. My dad always used to say he would trust a vet with a diagnosis more than a doctor as they have to work out the symptoms as the pet can't talk and in his eyes that made them more clever :D

Hi babybelle, just a quick question as my son was asking today if dogs get diabetes and i said i thought so but...how did you know? what are the symptoms for a dog please? Just curious as i have a dog :)

Wow just watched the diet programme on i player and very interesting...I am off for some low fat cheese now and a dance while I am in the kitchen :)

hello and Welcome, I have a dog [did have 3 but 2 have gone missing], 2 cats, lots of tropical fish, a tarantula, some crickets and a family of nesting pigeons on me roof :lol: I also have 2 sons. I am type 2 so know nothing of type 1 but feel free to chat and welcome again Sam x

Hi Chrissie, yes I felt exactly like you describe and he may as well have said I had months to live. It is now 4 months on and I am fine. i don't feel like it rules my life anymore but I control the beast. It will take time and feel free to have a moan or ask questions. What is it you like to...

Thanks thirsty, will check those links out. Never thought of a google search...DOH :D

I don't have problem with the smell of food, but do find that even if i make a salad then halfway through I feel as full as if i have eaten a 6 course meal which I find very funny as I used to be able to eat a 6 course meal and then ask what was for pudding :)
