[QUOTE="Jubbly, post: 410156, member: 77672"] Just watched the programme myself... I'm a newby and definately not as educated about diabetes as the people here so its probably no surprise that i was excited at the prospect that 8 weeks of dieting would cure diabetes. As others have mentioned there was no discussion about medication etc... i'm assuming those that were "cured" no longer need any medication and can eat sugary foods with no issue?... reading above it sounds like this is not actually true I'm sure people at work will have watched (hopefully not my boss) and will be giving me advice that i only need to do an 8 week diet to fix this.. I agree with the rest of you though that this was sadly cash focused, just another stigma for an overweight diabetic... what a lazy greedy drain on society i must be [/QUOTE]
