[QUOTE="zand, post: 1843460, member: 85197"] I have a fear of slimy foods which stops me eating fatty meat and eggs which is a shame, but it's a very real phobia which I have brought with me from my past. I dislike driving so would always choose to walk rather than go by car. I rarely drink alcohol.. I would like to be highly active too but years of depression have taken their toll. I think most people would help themselves if they could. Depression is debilitating and I reckon that's what stopped your Dad 'from trying' . That and the fact that good advice just wasn't out there so if he ever did try then the results were still bad because he was being told to do the wrong things. It's easy to stop being motivated if what you are told to do just doesn't work. It's good that he didn't eat a lot of fruit as fructose would go straight to the liver and make T2 worse. I am glad you are over your anorexia as being underweight is more dangerous to your health than being overweight. Well done on doing endurance events, they certainly keep you focussed. :) Oh to answer your question. Yes I have a diabetic cousin who just keeps doing what the doctor tells him even though his blood test results are getting worse. [/QUOTE]
