    First Christmas as a diabetic.

    I was diagnosed as Type 2 in August this year. I have got my hbA1c down from 69 to 42 with weight loss and diet. Even though this year's festivities are somewhat curtailed as a result of the upsurge in the “plague” this year will be my first Christmas as a diabetic, and I was wondering what...

    Christmas

    A Christmas Drink

    Dont get me wrong, I am not a big drinker, but enjoy a drink on special occasions I.e. Birthdays, and in particular Christmas Day and New Years Eve. But what to drink this year, this is my dilemma. I like a beer, but this has the same sugar content as a mars bar, I like brandy and port, but...

    Moderate diet success-next step?

    I am having success bringing down my HbA1c from 7.5 to 7.0 in the first three months of joining the forum. I am slowly losing weight. I am happy with these trends. My fasting blood glucose numbers are in the 5's, occasionally 4's, (and 6's when I have an extra treat.) I have been pretty...
