Hi Ann! Lovely to hear from you 🙂 I think lots of us have 'relaxed' a bit over Christmas, but (for me anyway), I get tired of it after nt very long and want to get back to healthier ways and eating - my how I've changed! 🙂

Wishing you every success with your renewed efforts in 2012, remember we are here if you need some support!

It's so good to hear from you Ellowyne, but I'm very sorry to hear that you are still suffering pain. It's very good to hear that Didi has decided where her future lies, I wish her every success and happiness as she progresses down her path. Good to hear that the Crohn's is under control too 🙂

If you need any help and support in your renewed efforts to get control of your diabetes - or just need a friendly ear - then please let us know, or PM me if you would prefer, anytime 🙂

I hope that you can find some relief from your pain and that you all have a very special Christmas and Happy New Year! :D

Hi,

I still pop in from time to time but Jessica keeps me pretty busy these days (she is nearly 2 now 😱) so I don't really get time to post/ reply to threads. I will probably be back properly when we ttc baby no 2. If I can pluck up the courage to go through it all again🙂

I've been having lots of high's the last month or so but I have no idea why it keep's happening, so I have had enough of the D really. I am dreading my
hba1c in February. That's about it really. I hope everyone is keeping well and I wish you all a merry christmas😉

I am back! I had a lovely honeymoon, cruising the carribbean for two weeks. Despite eating the occassional cake my BG remained pretty good in fact lower than when I'm home. Wonder if being more chilled out helped?!
I know its not the easiest time of year with so many temptations! so I hope everyone is feeling ok x

I'm still alive! Been so busy that I haven't checked her in ages. The new combination of Gliclazide and Metformin is working well and my levels are now in the normal range. Resolution for this year is that I can come off Gliclazide by losing the weight and getting to grips with exercise.

Will try to check in here more often.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas.

hi guys.... I'm still alive and kicking 🙂

sorry I've not been around. the 2nd half of 2011 has been terrible! deaths of 3 people in August and November that I was close to (including my Mum) .... I've been in hospital 3 times (twice rushed in, in June and once for a major operation in October)... after my op I got a bad infection and was ill for a while ..... I've been struggling with the dreaded diabetes and cholesterol levels... and I have also been battling with depression.

but.......................... I'M BACK!!!!

hope you are all doing well............ and......... Happy New Year. here's hoping that 2012 is a great year for us all xXx

Oh my dear, what a dreadful time you have had! :( Here's hoping that 2012 is a good year for you, and you recover your strength and get those levels under control. You have been missed, and it's very good to hear from you 🙂
 
thanks for the kind words Northerner..... I've missed you all terribly. hopefully my computer will behave and I'll manage to get in here several times per week from now on :D

Hi everyone, wishing you all a happy and healthy new year. We have had a really hectic few weeks but Kate is doing well. She survived her second christmas with the dreaded diabetes, the build up to christmas seems to really stress her but hopefully next year she will not worry so much. A few highish readings but what the hell - at least she had a good time!! xx
 
Lovely to hear from you both x
Wishing you a happy 2012
 
Hi Gang,

After a long lull, through one thing or another, I am back too. Northerner, I have left you a PM.

I have really missed posting, but reading about everyone else's problems, mine are minor in comparison. I think we should all regroup and make it our New year's resolution to keep in touch.

I will go and see what's been happening. I don't want to bore you all with my problems but stress and diabetes don't mix!

Now off the Metformin completely and STRUGGLING....:

Anybody who's still on diet and exercise, a few tips would be great.

Love to everybody
Donna 🙂🙂🙂
