Just back from seeing the diabetic nurse.

Hardly got through the door when she said "What have you been doing!?"

I acted all coy and said "nothing why?"

"Your diabetic score has dropped from 57 (diabetic) to 41 (Pre-diabetic)."

I said that diet wise I kicked all carbs into touch and replaced them with vegetables, chicken and oily fish with fruit thrown in as and when.

The upshot being I'm now Pre-diabetic, as stated, and I've lost three stone in weight too!

She says carry on with the Metformin for now and do another blood test in January which will decide whether I've reversed it or not.

I go away this Friday and to have this great news has made me pleased as punch.


Happy days, now where did I put that box of doughnuts!?

Also Sarge I hope all goes well for you with your upcoming back treatment and you're not out of circulation for too long.
