Derik

[Brando77]

Hallo all, just got a letter to sort out an appointment to attend a Derik course. Any good? Worth going?
Had my regular eye test this week and eyes are the same as 12months ago, so no new lens for my specs. Good news for my eyes and wallet.
Weekend off now.....and....relaaaax.
Edited to say I'm an idiot putting it in the Newbie posts. Doh.

BUT the Derik course is kinda a new thing to me I suppose.

Think it must be your CCG's name for the training they offer to T2s, as I've not heard of it nationally. A lot of T2 training is better than it used to be - but some of it ain't. It's as much to do with who's delivering it as the content. All you can do is go along and make the most of it with a good will!

Could be brilliant.

Or not!

Hi Bruce
As TW said some courses are excellent. Whatever is included just keep asking questions, and if any occur later just ask on here. Someone will come along with an answer.

I’ll be really interested in how it goes for you, I did the DESMOND and had I followed the advice given, I’d still be looking at double figures for my bg....classic healthy eating, low fat, 5 a day fruit, rice, pasta, potatoes 😱 Thankfully I had already found this forum so I knew which was the right road to follow 🙄
