[QUOTE="Walter Wolf, post: 1773075, member: 473281"] Thanks for the replies everyone. In answer to the questions: archersuz: I normally walk alone, as I can go at my own pace and have breaks any time. I used to really enjoy the walking, but don't have the energy or frankly the inclination any more. It's like a vicious circle - as my energy levels get lower, the less I walk, etc. Mike D: I have no idea. I think it's just basic metformin. Antje77: Yes, my diet includes all of those things, apart from the peanuts. I usually eat at a diner close to my work. I don't cook - I am a one-man disaster zone in the kitchen. Mel dCP: Last time around, my doctor gave me the hellfire and brimstone warnings about abdominal fat and how that affects the efficiency of the insulin that my body produces. I was given a huge list of everything I couldn't eat - basically everything that was even moderately high in sugar, fat, carbs or salt. My doctor just went on and about weight loss, weight loss, weight loss. I must admit I didn't stick to it to the letter, but it got to the stage where every time I looked at a plate of food, all that went through my head was "carbs, sugar, fat, diabetes, calories". I'm getting like that again now too. For the last 48 hours, my total consumption has been 4 slices of toast, 6 litres of mineral water, two cappuccinos and 80 cigarettes. [/QUOTE]
