A diagnosis of diabetes is shattering for many people. But for Ramona Mulligan, it was the impetus she needed to turn her life around.
She discovered she had diabetes in March 2009 after feeling unwell and going to see a GP for the first time in three years.
Her blood sugar was high and she was sent for tests, which showed she was glucose intolerant and could have diabetes.
Ramona, 46, said: “It scared me. I had lost a very dear friend to diabetes and heart disease several years before.
“I had also recently almost lost my mother to diabetes.
“She had some sort of an attack, like a diabetic seizure or stroke, which caused her to go into a diabetic coma.”
Ramona weighed 17 stones and she decided it was time to do something about her health.
