[QUOTE="smc85, post: 1715348, member: 469802"] I was shocked to learn on Thursday that I am pre diabetic. My weight is at 13stone and I am 5'4. I am certainly not the healthiest person but I had NO IDEA I was that unhealthy. I allowed myself Thursday to feel angry and upset for allowing myself to get in to such bad shape. I am so thoroughly disappointed that I have put my health at such risk. I don't smoke, rarely drink so considered myself to be not too bad. How naive I was! I am scared that this could develop into full blown type 2 and I will have no one to blame but myself. Friday came round and I was determined to start the day afresh and do something about it rather than feeling sorry for myself. I've created a low carb meal plan and dusted off my rowing machine (I've used it twice and went out for a walk today.) I know I have a journey ahead of me but this is the wake up call that I stupidly needed. Just wondered if anyone had any tips or suggestions as to how to adjust to this diagnosis? [/QUOTE]
