Will have to change my diet as I literally just found out I’m diabetic.

That’s sound, that. A lad I used to go to school with had diabetes and he had to have a Swiss roll and a can of full fat Coke for his breakfast on the bus every day. 
 

I’ve always been jealous of that kid. What a fantastic life.

All those years drinking Pepsi-Max too, feel like I’ve been cheated.

Type 1 or 2?

 

This is worth a look if you wanted to go veggie/vegan or already are. The NHS are fucking useless with info imo. Only reason I stopped this is I have no gallbladder a d was having horrendous trapped wind. Though may try it again buy just be slower implementing the diet. 

 

Low carb does work for control aswell though it takes a while to get used to insulin level(if your insulin dependent) as it can cause hypos till your used to it. 

 

If your type 2 and can reverse it do everything you can to do that as honestly being insulin dependent can be a fucking pain at times and you don't shake off colds,cuts and bruises take 2 to 3 times to heal etc

Can't be type 1 at his age.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Mark Thomas calls Type 1 "Tory diabetes".  People with Type 1 just inherited it, but anyone with Type 2 had to work for it.

I’ll be honest, Howie. I know next to nothing about diabetes.

Alright, Lee. You’ve already had your whip round. Stop going on about it, man.

I got diagnosed with it in 2006, got put on Metformin for the diabetes and Simvastatin for cholesterol.

 

I lost a shit load of weight and they took me off the Metformin saying I could now control it by diet. 

Sadly my weight crept up again so I'm back on the meds.

 

A sensible diet and exercise (which I can't do hence the weight gain) and you'll be sound mate.

They look boss but surely should be drenched in hot sauce?

The “wings” got tossed in hot sauce mixed with melted butter half way through cooking, so the hot sauce is now in the breadcrumbed coating. 
 

Kept it on the milder side so my daughter wouldn’t be put off them, but they still had a bit of a kick even then.

Cumberland Shroomdogs (Plant Pioneers from Sainsburys) are significantly less good than Richmond veggie sausages and so the latter remain the standout and the only veg sausage I’ve tasted that I could say is better than real sausages.
