9 bars are particularly yummy!

Fantastic results, but dont let the weight creep back on; it's the secret to maintaining those figures.

I asked my doctor the exact same question last week as I have the same issues. She has been very good throughout my diabetic journey so far and I value her opinion. All she was bothered about that levels were not elevated at 2 hours and beyond. I specifically mentioned going to 8 and 9 after...

Well done you!

I'm pretty much in the same boat myself and I am finding that as long as I maintain my post diet weight, then my levels remain in the non diabetic range. I do however spike higher than my wife (I use her for blind testing poor thing!) for the same meal and my GP considers that I'm now just...

Cheers Nosher!

Thanks Kate

Ta very much all

Hi again all, Been looking forward with apprehension to this reading as this is my first without Metformin and I have been upping my carbs lately to provide a sustainable diet for the rest of my days. I shouldn't have worried as it's gone down to 31 !!!! My weight has been steady since December...

I'm with Andrew on that one; didn't do the shakes: It's the calories that count!

Well done you, and congratulations on winning your battle with the NHS!

When I had chickenpox as an adult, I was given Acyclovir to try as an anti-retroviral. Still felt pretty bad though.....

Jack, I humbly apologise for not reading your links until this morning but after doing so, wow! I'm going to discuss this info with my doctor for her input. It appears on face value that all in the Metformin garden is rosy and it makes me a bit happier at the thought of taking it that it is...

I feel exactly the same way about any medication.
