Not officially diagnosed yet but one reading put me as type 2 from pre diabetic. So just had second blood test and awaiting results. If in diabetes spectrum will be given the label and Metaformin.

Have to agree with others @jayney27 your picture looks great. You have done so well and its always nice when people comment on how well you look and your weight loss.

Thank you, everyone has been very kind and complimentary. The picture was taken to go into the inspirational booklet that @Debandez is putting together, I was surprised by the transformation myself, hadn’t realised how far I’d come so it was quite motivating for me too.

Here’s the link to the pod cast on iPlayer of the show on BBC Radio Oxford where I was interviewed this morning about my Diabetes diagnosis etc...!
I’m on at about 2hrs 42 after Cliff for anyone who fancies a listen!

Excellent interview, Rachel, & thanks for the link. (You do have good radio programmes in your neck of the woods!)

Have you seen the info for newly diagnosed by @daisy1 from about 6 posts back yet? She will no doubt be able to help with info, and there are loads of good people on here that will also try to assist.

Hi @jennyblogs, welcome to the forum and don’t despair, I’ve had a look back through my records and I had a 12.2 just a month ago. I still get the odd 9 and 10 but less often. You’re in the right place for support, test before eating and two hours after, tell us what you’re eating and when. I know people with more knowledge than me will then give you their experiences to help you get this thing under control.

Hopefully, tomorrow's numbers will be much lower after the fast.
