[QUOTE="amgrundy, post: 1176999, member: 256496"] Hi Beryl, It really gets to me when people who know nothing about Diabetes poke heir nose in. I bumped into a couple of people the other day whom I had not seen for a while, one asked had I been ill as I had lost weight, the other said gosh you look well have you been on a diet. To which I replied I have been diagnosed with diabetes in Jan this year had not felt well for a while, but now after losing the weight through the LCHF way of eating I feel better and fitter than I have in a long time. The first lady said, oh dear! that's awful but don't loose anymore weight or you will be ill :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead: what does she know !!!! another person with ignorance.:clown::clown: The second lady said I'm sorry about the diabetes must I must say you look so well, I think I need to go on that diet too, and asked me about it. Then yesterday my daughter told me that a friend of hers told her that she had seen me the other day, and said to her < your mum has lost loads of weight and she looks great, has she been on a diet? >. So now when people ask me have I been on a diet I say yes and don't mention the diabetes part. Some people are ignorant others just don't undrerstand. You keep doing what your doing, you are a winner like the rest of us. :) [/QUOTE]
