Just to support what others have said. I work in employee relations in central government and deal with conduct and equality issues on a daily basis. Honesty is the only way to go. As others have said, lack of honesty is the far bigger concern for any employer and could break the relationship...

M&S do a nice one with 10% fat. It's in a purple tub, 500g and a smaller size too.

Well done you. It's inspiring for those of us just starting out on this journey we don't remember booking in advance [emoji4]

Well I saw an optician today for a routine eye test and told him about my diagnosis and the retinopathy test result. He made some images and spent ages explaining them to me, even showing me some of other people for comparison, and said that while there are definitely some changes, he didn't...

Thanks Joey, I hope the injections work for you, fingers crossed.

Total Fage 5% Greek Yoghurt is my favourite at 3g per 100g with a couple of strawberries chopped up or raspberries. It's surprising how different brands can vary so much in carb count. M&S 10% Greek Yoghurt in a purple tub is also delicious but perhaps more of a luxury and perhaps a bit higher...

Thanks Angey, that's good to hear. I will of course wait for the appointment and feeling calmer now after all the information and advice from people here. It really helps so much especially as I don't talk to anyone in real life about it. So much admiration for you and others who have dealt...

@Rachox - thanks for letting us know. That's great news, so pleased for you!

Thanks, yes will definitely go and they won't hand over my new batch of contact lenses if I don't! That's good advice about spacing out appointments, will try to do that too.

Thank you Dark Horse, that's really informative and reassuring. It was my first test so don't know how early it is or if I have had it for some time, but will hope for the best and try to calm down in the meantime! I was discharged a couple of years ago as a Moorfields out-patient after...

Thank you for that advice, will bear that in mind.

Yes that's good advice. I saw something yesterday which said to focus on what we can control and not what we can't. Will keep that in mind. Thanks again.

Thanks Jim, sorry to hear you have had a further complication and I hope it gets resolved. I saw your comment on another thread about how nasty the injections were so I hope you don't have to go through it again. Good luck.

Thank you Rachox. I had read some of the previous threads and wasn't sure whether it was just the earlier background stage which could eventually right itself. Fingers crossed for your results and hope you get good news.

Last week I posted about my delight that my hba1c had come down from 88 in February to 41. A couple days later I received a letter telling me that my retinopathy check the week before showed that I have pre-proliferative retinopathy. I have an appointment with a consultant on 11 July which I...

Thank you! I think that's where I am getting confused with keto vs lchf and weight loss generally. Not sure if I am eating too little or too much fat. More research needed ... that's my next task. [emoji4]

Thank you [emoji4]

@kittycat and @tayelola - thanks for your encouragement!

Thanks Rachox, your profile pics are an inspiration!

Thank you .. I remember you were one of the first to post such a supportive reply to my original message on joining. I definitely will share with others whenever I can.
