[QUOTE="John J, post: 109748, member: 22542"] I wonder about such definitions and descriptions and feel that such terms are possibly unhelpful. :? Can anyone confirm that there is such such a condition as this which will go away if you take the correct steps in terms of diet, weight loss, and treatment? Or will it always return if you revert to old habits etc? Surely, one either has it(Diabetes) or not? I do realise that it may be controlled very well... and many people can live as healthily as a non diabetic with a few lifestyle changes but would I be correct in assuming that the propensity to develop full diabetes and/or a progressively condition will always be present? Or can the "Pre-diabetic" condition be completely reversed and never return? I'm a recently diagnosed Type 2 diabetic and don't apparently fall into the pre diabetic category although I've been very good at controlling things so far. However, I realise that some conscious effort in doing this will always be necessary(The methods, of course, are always open to debate). Does this also apply to "Pre diabetics" too? Sorry if all this sounds a bit long winded and confusing but I hope you got the jist of it. :) [/QUOTE]
