I did have a quikc shifty when in the shop the other day and there was no info on the pack :( Thanks for the info though!

Hi, I'm looking to replace my normal food stuff with low sugar and low carb alternatives that closly match the originals. I have posted before about sweet chilli sause and did not get many replies so I assume its not something thats normally done. I'm thinking of trying it next weekend - the...

Thanks for you replies, I can see that it looks like the best option is just to stick with the met for now. I asked mainly about met in that thread and to be honest while I don;t agree on the why the doc put me on them I am glad I have them.

Hi I have not spoken to my GP as of yet. I was floating the idea first. Mainly I'd like to be able to lower my BG when I get high readings for what ever reason. I have had 2 or 3 over 10 2 hour PP readings and thats when, IMHO, I could do with them

Right I'm looking for a sanity check - and to be honest I trust the people here more than I do my GP. My thought about this whole thing is that I should use all the controls possible that I can to keep my BG in normal ranges, and as long as I do with eyes wide open there should be no problems...

I think its worth remembering that muscle also weighs more than fat so just because you are not loosing weight does not mean that you are not loosing fat. Sometimes (myself included) people get caught up in the whole "I must loose weight" mentality, but what relly counts IMHO is the loss of your...

Thanks for the website - I'll digest the info when I get back from my walk. Thanks Hobs I was already diag with work related stress (before the d)and have actioned it with both my GP and work - although works response was uh middleing! Although I think its something to add to the list of things...

So had a real poor day in work today. Was pretty stressy ...... checked my BG 3 hours after breakfast (could not do the 2 hour) and it was 7.9! I have been getting about 6 at the two hour and yesterday was a 5.4 How much would a bad day add to my BG?

Do you think this could work?

Hi, Has anyone got a source for these in the UK? I can not find them in Reading at all!

Forgive me if I am wrong but taking the load off the beta cells can premote "recovery" or at least slow the death of the cells so if you take the load off short term and manage the insulin to the point you are still loosing wieght then would it not benifit you long term?

I honestly can't understand the NHS either - learning what foods effect you (and therefore removing them) will only lower the chances of complications long term and probably save money. If they gave people these tools and the knowledge to use them then this will only help long term

Well personally (and I'm still new to this) I think newly diag T2 who are overwieght for the most part should be given insulin straight off along with all the diet help. If IR is a problem and loosing weight helps then we should protect those beta cells while we lower it

Hi, I'd not mind answering some questions via email over a day or two ..... but I'm not sure I'm what your after: Type 2 Diag a month ago 28

Good - I'd not want to make enemies..... I know curing type 2 is easy but I'm enjoying having it it so I plan on sticking around for a while ;)

Hi, Only recently diag's myself, I'd really suggest this book: "The First Year: Type Two Diabetes", by Gretchen Becker Which is the closest I came to a "a booklet with all the answers to my questions" But remember to test yourself and there are lots of pieces advice out there that are...

Yea thats fine - please don't think I was having a pop at the people here! I just used the site as a reference during the first few weeks and it was more of a throw away comment with no malice!

That sounds much easier and something that I could use for my breakfast - I miss toast!! Do you think it could be uses as a base for a mini pizza??
