I am t2 and have "nonalcoholic fatty liver", I was diagnosed with it about two years before the T2, and was told that it could be a contributory factor in my T2. I have to admit I did not take the fatty liver thing to seriously and carried on as normal, ish, but since being diagnosed T2 I have changed diet, and increased exercise, I have dropped over 1 1/2 stone from 16 1/2 to just under 15 and still losing.
