[QUOTE="Muddy Cyclist, post: 2109961, member: 505893"] I have Mountain Biked for the last 18 years, coached the sport for 10 of them so was aghast when diagnosed Type 2 in April. I should not have been surprised as on my rides I thrived on Bacon Sandwich, Cake and Flapjack, Pasta meals and Porridge for breakfast and had crept up to 103 Kilo, no wonder the hills were getting harder, I had put it down to my approaching 70th ah, ah. So I increased my Mountain Bike rides to at least 3 a week and 3 hours each session, it was very hard at first but as the Kilos fell off (now 80 Kilo in weight) the number of Kilometres increased and hills became a piece of cake, which of course I can't eat anymore lol. The real benefit is I am now pre-diabetic and all without meds. So well done all who are working on their fitness no matter how small or great there are real benefits to be had, keep it up. [/QUOTE]
