Kendall and Jacqui

very sorry to hear the latest. but like others v glad its not a resurgence of something uglier.

Three years ago, after eating our way round the cake shops of Vienna (with my daughter), I returned to Sydney and a type 2 diagnosis. I figure it took me years of addiction to sugar to get there. Yes, I had to go to a dietician who reprogrammed and brainwashed me in several sessions.

I don't eat pasta anymore, get low GI bread (full of seeds) and eat much more veg & protein (tofu, nuts, beans)and less carbs. 10 kg lighter and still enjoy life. Walking - I now go on long walks - regulalrly - daily, via thye harbour, via bookshops and via pretty streets to check out the gardens. walking walks everything off - the weight, the sugar, and burns off tension.

join the club kendall, there are a few of us here and we're the lucky ones. the real danger is for anyone who hasn't been diagnosed.

good luck with it all - & btw I've found a brand of dark choclate that doesn't have sugar in it. it's delicious.

hugs to you both
