Cracking read, congrats. That's one in the eye for the establishment and who knows how many unaware diabetics it may help?

Excellent Jamrox . The advice I have read in the forum's had helped me a lot. In 12 months I have lost 2 stone and my waist size has gone from a 44 inch to a 36 inch. This has been done by changing what I eat, portion control and a 30 minute fast walk every day. Weekends is slower as the kids come with me.
I have been type 2 diabetic for 7 years and the first years my bloods were all over the place. They are now an average of 6.2 mols.
I eat a lot healthier, and I can now keep up with my young children.
I have also a very good diabetic team at my local gp's, which has also helped.

@Jamrox Wow I saw you in another newspaper article recently and didn't realise it was you. That will teach me to not just look at the photees! :facepalm:

Well done and thank you for sharing your success story x

Way to go @Jamrox!
How about a bit of a mention here for your exercise / activity encouraging threads?
They have certainly helped me to get moving, and were invaluable to me last year to help improve mobility after a very long period of illness.
Thank you!
