This my sound silly but how do you get the ground almonds fine enough to bake with? I tried sieving it and gave up after 20 mins. The cakes tasted ok just felt like I had a mouth full of coconut.

Hi I was diagnosed with type 2 three weeks ago, and like you told no need to test. I decided on a codefree meter this week as the strips and lancets are the cheapest I could find.

I was told last week I have type 2 and I was told no need to test, but if I want to reduce my bs with diet then wouldn't testing help?

Hi I was diagnosed with type 2 last week and the nurse put a request in for me to attend an NHS course but I have no idea how long I will have to wait, and that is all the help I have received apart from two booklets. I am so confused about it all and by the sounds of your experience from...
