[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 1895446, member: 345386"] My diagnosis was 5 years ago,................. today. Hardest thing about living with T2? these days for me there isn't anything that's outrageously hard, but then I got lucky in lots of areas. In the early days, it was a bit different. The hardest thing was how shocked I was by the information given by the NHS and how so little of it made any sense - eat low fat, when the issue was blood sugars. Eh? Biggest breakthrough? Finding online resources and buying a meter are dead heat winners. From the moment I had a meter, I suddenly had the basis of a plan, setting myself targets for lowerin my blood sugars and being led by what appeared on the test result screen. Take it steady [USER=492004]@IronLioness[/USER] . This a marathon, not a sprint, and there are some very enjoyable things to learn along the way. Try not to focu on the negatives. They tend not to move you forward on any journey. [/QUOTE]
