[QUOTE="Aadrgon, post: 55474, member: 14819"] Hi Just read your post. My father dies of heart attack 13 years ago sometimes it still feels like yesterday. I was diagnosed type 2 a year ago - took the tablets followed the Doctors advice and didn't improve so I went into denial, I thought nothing of eating several packs of crisps or three or four chocolate bars at a time (easily done when you own a village shop). A couple of weeks back I spent most of one Sunday sleeping, on my wife's insistence I checked my BG which was 19. I found this site a week ago my average BS has dropped from 12+ to 7+ and I'm think Im losing weight ( haven't got around to checking yet but I can see my toes again - just :) ) You've done well so far my friend and I know it is easy to lose motivation but you have to keep telling yourself you're not just doing it for you it's for your friends and family. If you feel the urge for chocolate - have a small amount if you must as a treat ( just not too often ) and if you need to 'talk' put something into words in here - someone is bound to be able to help in some way. Above all remember You are not alone [/QUOTE]
