[QUOTE="tigerlily72, post: 229007, member: 38433"] Thanks guys for the advice and comments so far. And Grazer I agree with what you've said. I didn't have to do the oral glucose test as I find injections/needles very traumatic so they said they wouldn't do 2 blood tests on the 2nd test I had. So I just had a fasting blood test each time and had to fast for 12hrs which I did. My Dr said that if both came back over 7 then I would be classed as diabetic but I am wondering if I have pre diabetes - so confused! I think I will make another appt with the Dr in a week or so. As regards to the diet I've lost 11lbs over a 4wk period and trying to mainly adopt the GI diet. It seems to be working and more importantly I'm managing to actually stick to it! :) [/QUOTE]
