[QUOTE="PenguinMum, post: 1709275, member: 461597"] I did the DESMOND course recently and regarding diet it was surprisingly up to date. However, they said an HBA1C over 53 was diabetic and under 53 prediabetic. They even wrote this on the white board so I didnt imagine it. Everyone except me had been put on Metformin at diagnosis and they couldnt understand why I wasnt. I didnt own up to saying no thanks. Most were men in their 70s who just wanted to take the pills enjoy their takeaways and booze but avoid nasty things like amputations! [/QUOTE]
