[QUOTE="Debandez, post: 1791299, member: 460354"] Just a quick update on my friend who was diagnosed around the same time as me last year. He went out with my hubby last night and the diabetes was brought up. He has seen my progress as I post on social media when I reach specific goals. Reached my goal weight and non diabetic hba1c. A couple of weeks ago I went through things with him explaining the testing to your meter and what to eat to bring down BS. Last night he said 'I'm not bothering, I'm just going to take the tablets, I love my food too much especially pasta'. He also added his fasting bloods are over 7. He does test here and there. It's made out like it's an easy option when actually it's a sticking plaster and does nothing to keep diabetes in check. But my friend is one of many in his thinking (Not helped by the GP/DN) and we are the minority. We can only hope to see education in this area advance. Education is the key. [/QUOTE]
