[QUOTE="Bebo321, post: 918960, member: 68730"] I totally agree that you don't need a gym to get yourself fit - I guess my question would be however, do you think a newly diagnosed T2D would be more committed to getting fit if there was a program to support them with say a personal trainer/gym at the outset? I wonder if tackling that initial inertia and helping to get someone to a point where they are physically (and probably as a consequence mentally) in a much better place - so combining a program with a carb restricted diet; would it be enough to sustain a lifestyle change? How long would it need to last to be effective, and how often would there need to be a top-up? I guess if people are getting fit collectively then there is an advantage that a 'community' develops to support and encourage each other too. I'm just chucking it out there as a thought - the long term costs of not getting control of diabetes, not only financially to us all, but more importantly the cost to the individual are cripplingly high.
