HI there, just joined.
I was pre-diabetic a few months ago and have just had my second blood test, which I am sure is going to say I am now type diabetic.
I have been finding it hard to say no to the things I know I shouldn't be eating - and my Husband does the weekly shop so he gets them and then they sit there subliminally saying 'eat me'.
I have just been looking into increasing my fibre intake instead of trying to say no to things. At the moment I feel quite positive about this - it's actually a diet form I have never tried before (I really don't think there are that many I haven't tried).
I am currently about 5-6 stones overweight, with a very arthritic knee, ankle closely following and BK amputation on the other side, so walking and most exercise is hard. Throw in asthma and ME and I think 'couch potato' fits me as a cover-all term!!
Here's hoping I can manage something this time (really not good at finishing things TBH - unless it's a huge dinner)
Anyway, thanks for reading this - didn't mean to go on so long.
