I do way more of one than the other, and need to somehow resolve this in a BIG way....I'll let you decide which is which!!Any motivational tips to get out and generally be more active also appreciated!I have also been told by my clinic nurse that I needn't take blood readings, but having a read through the forums over the last few days, I think it might be a good idea to, if nothing else, just to see how I react to various foods. Any thoughts or comments on this too please?Whilst it's not an ideal situation, I look forward going through this next "adventure" in my life with your expert knowledge and advice at hand!Thanks in advance...KIEREN(UK based)</blockquote>
