Message: <blockquote data-quote="KREJ200" data-source="post: 2752083" data-attributes="member: 596618">Hi from sunny old Scotland. I have recently had bloods taken for another health reasons which identified that I am pre-diabetic and have high cholesterol. I have been advised by my GP that this can be reversible through a change of lifestyle and diet.I am overweight (21 stone) and don’t have much physical exercise except walking the dog. I have recently joined the gym with the hopes of being more active. I do smoke but have bought a vape (I know still not ideal) but I’m finding it difficult to stop so I suppose its some progress there. Due to my work and the hours during the week I have been reliant on frozen stuff pizza’s, chicken strips, chips. I do cook fresh food at the weekend though. I used to drink energy drinks daily (usually a monster) but have now quit. Alcohol wise I would have a drink at the weekend, mainly beers and wine.I am looking for some input from people with similar circumstances that may offer either support/guidance with how to get a grasp of what’s currently going on with my current health.I have been looking online which seems like information overload and find it difficult to process.If there is any meal tips, food prep, or batch cooking tips that I could incorporate into my diet. The only fish I can eat is tinned tuna, so would probably me mainly eating chicken-based diet. As mentioned I have high cholesterol so if any information on this would be welcome.Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.Moved by mods to a new thread, edited by mod to change title</blockquote>
