Hello from the South coast

Hi all

After some pretty lazy GP experiences and being told I am prediabetic I have decided to come where the knowledge is and join up after a while having lurked!

Names Rich, 43 from Rye on the south coast of Sussex. Glad to be here and hope to meet some of you.

Welcome to the forum, you will find lots of information here about lifestyle changes you will need to make, something fairly modest should be all that is needed.
Have a read of this link as it a a straightforward explanation, some menu plans and recipe, It is a low carb approach that people have found successful https://lowcarbfreshwell.com/
Other people find a low calorie regime suits them but whatever you choose has to be enjoyable otherwise it will not be sustainable which it needs to be.

Hi @wonderer and welcome to the forum!

I'm assuming here, but has your GP spoken at all to you about the changes you might need to make to your day to day life, or are you looking at those yourself? As Leadinglights has mentioned - they need to be enjoyable so they're long-lasting to keep you on track, but you'll find a lot of good ideas on the forum around different things that have helped different people. Keep us posted on how you get on and any questions or worries you might have - please share!
