Just been hiding behind my hands watching tonights episode! There were several diabetic related foot problems. Just watching it is good incentive to put the chocolate back in the fridge, even if it is 85% cocoa! Its so scary!!! I do not want to end up like that. I would like to keep all my toes.

It also annoys me how overweight people, including myself, in the UK are becoming. Surely someone near the top must have realised that all this low fat stuff isn't helping?!
 
Pffft I can't even watch master chef anymore, and they have all there extremeties.
 
Andy ! I have to tape Masterchef mate ! Sad but I enjoy that ! I saw the fat body thing the other night. This was a repeat I think ! Makes me even more determined to look after myself !

Was that also the programme where they said the guy in the hospital needed some sweet food as he had diabetes and was suffering from low blood sugar?
 
Hi, yes that was the episode. With the doctor digging around in one guys cracked foot saying let me know if it hurts to which the guy replied I cant feel a thing!!! I so don't want to be like that. I like walking around if I want.

I think people you struggle to take their meds or resist looking after themselves should be sat down with a video of something like that. Warn them what they could be look at if they don't take control.

I found it made me feel better that I am taking control now.
