[QUOTE="deb60, post: 429417, member: 71743"] I was diagnosed t2 in 2011. I lost almost 3 stone and was told by my diabetic nurse that I was in the normal blood sugar range. I was thrilled with this news and promptly went back to my old ways and put 2 stone back on! In may I had my full bloods done and when I went back to see my nurse and was told that my bs were really high. I had been feeling rotten and also had thrush, but hadn't put 2 and 2 together (complete denial) I was falling asleep straight after eating but still hadn't realised what was happening. I have now lost about a stone and a half and cut out sugar and last week went back to see my dn. She was beaming as I walked in and she told me that my bs was normal!! This time I'm not going back to my old ways, I feel 100% better and no longer fall asleep. I was on holiday in Venice for the last 6 days and although I did eat pizza I shared it with my husband and rationed myself to 1 scoop of icecream every other day. I have come home and have only gained 1lb and my bs is fine. I have finally realised that although my bs are normal I am still diabetic and always will be and gaining weight is the trigger for my diabetes. That said we are all human and we aren't perfect. :lol: [/QUOTE]
