As a former nurse, Vanessa Davies was in no doubt about what the warning signs might mean.
When her eyesight began to deteriorate rapidly and her fingertips started to go uncomfortably numb, she suspected diabetes.
But when a blood test revealed she was right, even she was startled by just how bad her health had become.
Vanessa had type two diabetes ? and her weight problem and poor eating habits were almost certainly to blame.
Her size 28 body already meant she was breathless at the first sign of exertion and now her blood sugar levels were dangerously high too.
