[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 823036, member: 88961"] Good for you. Aside from diet and testing, the most powerful tool I had in my armoury when I started my diabetes journey almost 18 months ago was a supportive OH. He's still just as much there as he ever was. We made a promise to continue to always dine together, on the same menu, although he sometimes has additional items I pass on. It makes staying on track so much easier, and whilst I trimmed up, he did the same. Mwhilst always slim, we are both now very slight, and fitter than we were. Days is a lucky man to have someone who wants to be properly engaged in his life and learning about his new condition. One thing my OH would just not do though was to be tested. I would have loved to be able to,run comparative tests between myself as a diabetic, and him as a non-diabetic when eating certain foods. But, he just wouldn't, and I had to (reluctantly) accept that. Feel free to ask any questions you have. This site is, I believe, for anyone impacted by diabetes, as you inevitably are. [/QUOTE]
