Help! Just been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and tbh struggling with it - been given a leaflet by my doc and thats it - not much else except they want to see me in 6 weeks to see if they are going to start me on tablets or I am heading in the right way with the "diet" and therefore no need.... Hacked off at the little or no info given - understand the "need to lose weight" part but what can I and cant I have within reason - if I eat a large McD's and fries and milkshake and then go out and get blathered would that be me screwed no matter what I did for the next 5 weeks prior to appt...... Should I just join a convent now and throw away the key....
