I've now gone nigh on 4 years since I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and flown through my annual reviews with no problems.
Starting from now, I will be changing my diet, no more biscuits,cakes,chocolate or crisps until the level is down to an acceptable reading, and even then, will be cutting down and not having as much as I used to. What I want is to avoid getting type 2 d, but I’m not a great lover of fruit or veg. I like pears, but only if they’re ripe and not rock hard, I like broccoli and carrots, but only if there’s plenty gravy, hate cauliflower and “Jeff food”.Like grapes, strawberries and raspberries too.Need to watch what I read too, was looking at a web page earlier, that said to reduce blood sugar, take more exercise, and reduce carbs. However my wife used to be a medical secretary, and said take no notice of that, just listen to the doc, and eat healthier.

Morning everyone, go for the healthy eating and exercise Rich, you will feel totally different after a few weeks, I’ve dropped a stone and a half since Feb, I’ve cut out the biscuits and cake and I’m walking a min of 4 miles every day come rain or shine, I should have done it years ago!

Go for it bud, you can do it.

Cool

Morning all.

Overcast here today.

Think it’s finally sunk in that I have bought a house.

Off to the letting agents to hand my 1 months notice in.

Then taking Banana up to Matt’s.

I am on my feet all day Andy, and do a lot of walking with the job. However I’m going to get my bike out next week and start using that and a bit more brisk walking. We are away in the caravan this weekend, so will try and do some walking along the beach. Trouble is round here, there is no where to walk off road, for any distance, the only decent place to walk or cycle, is the old wagon way at Wylam, so I need to drive there

Just returned from the weekly larder top-up exercise - what a lovely day
Clear blue skies, sunshine, no more of the chill breeze we've had for a while - 17° and aircon on full blast in the car.

Thumbs up

I often start the day with a banana which to save on the dish washing I slice up with the spoon with which I eat it. I sprinkling a little sugar over the slices in a cereal bowl, which I use to slice up the banana in to further save on the dish washing, and add one wheatabix over which I also sprinkle a little sugar. I then pour a little chilled milk over the contents of the cereal bowl and voila!

Bit of an acquired taste like most if not all things edible but it was my late mother who put the banana breakfast idea into my thoughts after she was recommended banana on toast (yeuk!) for her declining health which required many meds for things such as cholesterol control, blood circulation and pressure etc..

Afternoon all, warm & hazy here, I've been instructed to take the vertical blinds down in the conservatory to put in the washing machine, very hot in there phew!


My missus got her hearing aids yesterday and the cats have legged it with them overnight we're searching everywhere for them


Already made tea, homemade meatballs in tomato & red pepper sauce.....also just discovered we have no spaghetti in the cupboards
