[QUOTE="johnjo 2, post: 1717609, member: 469953"] Help Diagnosed last friday with Type 2 diabetes following a routine blood test. It’s all a bit of a shock really, I’m an active 64 year old, been active all my life. At 14 stone 4lb, 6 ft with my boots on, I didn’t think I was on the list for diabetes. My blood sugar level was 22, they took some blood for testing, not sure what happens next. Apparently, I can’t have any beer, cake, biscuits, pasta, bread, or spuds anymore. They want me to lose 10% of my body weight. I’ll have to cut me leg off. The wife is already using this condition to nag and control my very being - I’m on a low cab diet with eggs Eggs, scrambled, poached, fried, hard boiled, sunny side up, over easy, and kicked in every direction around the kitchen And; I’m told, diabetes can make you a little grumpy, although I’ve not seen any of that yet. Is there any good news?? johnjo2 Edited by a Mod. [/QUOTE]
