[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 1788793, member: 219467"] When I was first diagnosed I had a similar conversation with the DN "progressive chronic end up on insulin etc.." I was lucky enough to have already found this wonderful forum so in fact got quite angry at her ill informed negativity so I channeled that anger into proving her wrong. I think your one day at a time is a good one also I would be inclined to give you a bl**dy great pat on the back for taking control and making the changes you have made already. It sounds like you have quite a lot on your plate so to have taking control of your Type 2 deserves huge respect. I think on the forum we sometimes think that everyone knows and does what we do and its only when I go on the diabetes.co.uk facebook page and read some of the awful stuff posted there that I realise what a haven this forum is. I'm not very good at the "supportive" side but I do want to say you are already seeing great results that your stupid DN will find it completely amazing when you have your next HbA1c - so look forward to the stunned look on her face when you inform her you have done this without meds.
