Off insulin

I'm Paul and I've been on healthunclocked since November 2018 just after my partner passed away from terminal cancer. I had decided I needed to do something since I was around 17st and on 45 units of insulin twice a day. I started off by walking to work about 4 miles and eating sensibly. My diabetic nurse was excellent and I had started to loose weight. My insulin was being reduced. Last October, I was taken off insulin and still off. My daughter got me a cheap Fitbit and I have done over 10,000 steps per day for over 12 months. I've reduced my weight to 10 st and enjoying life so much.

If I can do this, then anyone can stay positive. I'm on here most days and will reply to anyone. Good luck. Paul

Good luck with it not as difficult as it looks. You will have more good day than bad. I was lucky I had a fantastic diabetic nurse. If you need to talk about anything just get in touch I'm on here most days. Paul
