Thanks very much. Lots to learn and will take some digesting if you'll excuse the pun. I did follow WWatchers up until the first lockdown , but it seems that that advice, although geared towards losing weight, is not necessarily geared towards helping the diabetic. They did indeed help me lose weight and I thought I was doing all the right things as WW was recommended by our GP practice diabetes nurse ( who I see once a year).

Some of those types of things like WW or Slimming World can be helpful but as you say are not specifically designed for Type 2 diabetics but you would have to be selective in the foods and recipes and reduce the carb content but then they tend to promote low fat which can then leave people hungry and they are then tempted by high carb snacks.
Somebody on another forum mentioned Noom which I have seen advertised but I don't know what that is based on and have seen no mention of it here.
