[QUOTE="Bebo321, post: 918714, member: 68730"] Interesting statement and I suppose it's understandable that many would take the view that expecting a 'hand out' to help treat a condition that is already a huge cost to the health system (especially free gym membership which would be regarded as a luxury for a lot of people) is pretty irresponsible.:eek: Having said that, to offer a personal fitness training plan at diagnosis (ideally with real time feedback with blood glucose readings) concurrent with diet plan/education (that is based on carb reality) and I am betting you would see some excellent results and more importantly give people hope and control of their own destiny. It may be a burden on the already overloaded taxpayer, but it would be interesting to see a cost analysis. Cost upfront for a long term saving? [/QUOTE]
