I WAS checked..... Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

I checked out by my doctor, you had to have a form signed before you was able to go on the lighter life diet. You also had to drink 4 litres of water a day. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Cricket lover my post was fact for me and not intended to be scare mongering. The initial post asked for comments about experiences if you have used shake type produces - I have and had all the stated problems. I am sure hundreds of people use these with no problems, and to be fair at the stage...

It is really hard to stick to, with events and the like cropping up. I didn't eat anything other than the shakes and just drank water for 12 weeks. Nothing else was eaten, I even tasted food when making for the family and spat it in the bin so not to eat it. For a few people who attended my...

I lost 5 stone in 3 month on Lighterlife, I would NOT recommend it or any kind of similar thing. Quick fix.......yes Impressive lost......yes Hair falling out....... Yes (my hair is so thin now) Baggy skin.......yes ( my 80 year old mum had a better set of boobs and tummy than me when I'd...

Our road runs into a country lane with a dead end (bikes can get through) so I am thinking when I pluck up courage to leave the garden I will go down the road, hopefully it will be quiet. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Thanks Mr Happy I will have a look. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Great, thanks for your replies. Over the summer I can cycle everyday ( I work in a school and have 6 weeks off) but once back to work and dark nights creeping in it might just be a weekend thing. I am interested in the exercise stand Yorksman, I will look into one for later on in the year...

Should I eat before going out? Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

My other half had just bought us bikes. It must be 25 years since I last rode. I am 47 and T2 (jan13) on a diet only plan, very wobbly at the moment on the bike but I'm sure the knack will come back to me. My exercise at the moment consists of walking the dogs and spurts of movement at work...

I have not received mine yet either but have a vague memory of it saying it may take 28 working days! No bank details were asked for by the way so I assume it will arrive eventually or if not nothing is lost. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Heads will look at attendance too. At the school I work at no authorised absences are permitted if it is below 95%, don't book anything just ask the school for their procedure and fill in the forms for leave before you book. Regular term time holidays will go against any decision and as...

I like a nice piece of steak when the pennies allow it! Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

When I found out I was T2 I spent about 4/5 days reading all I could on here and the main site. Then panicked! After a bit of a denial weekend I took control and went down the low carb route. The first few days I did feel a bit lightheaded but I believe it to of been a bit of a withdrawal from...

I did lighterlife (shake/soup based) for three months some five years ago. I lost five stone. Great you may say but.......all of a sudden when I started eating again I got pain from gallstones (never happened before) , my hair went really thin, skin was very dry and my body very, very saggy. And...

What about frozen berries? I have these in all the time for when I run out of fresh fruit and to eat with my Greek yogurt when I have this for breakfast. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

I was diagnosed T2 in January and had my first screening today. My eyes stung for a minute or so once the drops were popped in then a wait for 15, 2 photos of each eye and then bye bye. It was really simple and straight forward. The only problem I had was not being able to read my text for a few...
