Same here. Beware changing your diet and cutting out sugar, don't make the same mistake I did by eating pasties, sausage rolls etc to counter the feeling of hunger. I found cutting them out as well as bread helped enormously. This is against the docs guidlines which they spout because they have to because of NIICE. Diabetes.co.uk helped with diet. I personally recommend a more protein like diet but again don't go all Atkins diet. You can do a lot with diet. Question the doctors advice and demand alternatives.
Edit
Cut the carbs down, aim for no more than 30gms per meal. Forget diabetic sweets, biscuits etc. It's the carbs that turn into all the sugar you don't want.
another edit.
Doing this I lost 2 stone, that 28 pounds to Merkins in just 6 months.
Feel a lot better and am now under control and considered in remission.
