Hi everyone, ive been diagnosed with T2 for 10 months now and manage on diet and exercise alone. I refused medication on diagnosis even tho my hba1c was 97. 3 month later I had it down to 40. However 10 months in and I'm soo fed up with low carb diet and I'm struggling. I'm on a very low...

Hi everyone, I posted last year about being diagnosed type 2 in July. It was a shock but I dealt with it. I lost 2 stone and reduced my hba1c from 97 to 40 by going low carb. However I'm now really struggling with low carb. Esp t lunch time. No bread, no white potatoes, no rice, no pasta. What...

My mum has been diabetic since 1997 and she also loves beans. She has Heinz reduced sugar n salt beans and finds that for her personally they don't spike her bg to much. She only has them once a week tho and only 2 tablespoons.

I was diagnosed with type 2 in July this yr (2016) and although I'm coping I am on antidepressants. I was on them before I was diagnosed But I think diabetes has made it worse. It's the constant looking for the right foods to eat. It's mainly lunch for me its so stressful. And with diabetes u...

I can't eat cereal at all. I'm T2 since July and found I can only eat eggs scrambled in morning or full fat greek yoghurt with berries. But usually 1 scrambled egg does me until lunch.

I think in addition to what most people have already said I would mention the fact that if T2 where given a bg monitoring meter most diabetics would avoid taking any medication as they would be able to work out for themselves what and does not affect their bg. Therefore avoiding that food and...

Get yourself a meter it will change your life, it did mine. Thanks to the advice from here.

Hi everyone, I'm a little confused. Since going to my doctors last month for a diabetic review which was all good. lost 26 lb and went from 94 to 50 on my hba1c. The nurse told me my bad colesterol had risen from 5.4 to 5.9. So I reduced my cheese intake although still maintaining the lchf ...
