IT'S BEEN A WHILE - BUT HELLO

[sweet-tooth]

I'm not a newbie I registered some time ago but just received an email reminding me of this forum. So that shows the power of marketing. I have to say I am so impressed by the new site, it looks really good, full marks to the --- WEBSEAMSTRESS ---.

Just to remind everyone I am a T2 diagnosed for 6 years but have a mental block when it comes to the things that I should'nt do. My doctor / nurse say it's denial not too sure about that. I think it's human nature it's hard to change your lifestyle when the consequences are not slapping you in the face.

I'm 16.5 stone I'm told I should lose weight, I like biscuits, cakes, chocolate and alchohol. If I were to have a heart attack I would probably give them all up to reduce chance of another. So why do I find it so hard to say no when the enjoyment has no pain attached to it.

Could we be talking addiction here or some miss guided belief in the power of drugs 1500mg metformin + atorvastatin + asprin.

NICE TO BE BACK

I agree! I didn't recongize this site when I came to it. This is totaly new and great looking! I didn't think that I had ever been to this site before.
GREAT JOB!:woohoo:

Thank you so much, though I must be honest and say that it's not really me doing the job, rather a friend of mine took it a project and decided to help :-)

For now he prefer not to be mentioned but I bet that eventually I'll manage to convince him to post here too

Hi all - welcome back!

Hi Anita, I love the format although I can't say I was familiar with the old one. Explain the karma section please.

Well I must say I'm new to this myself...
As I understand karma is the voting other people gave you.
Each user can vote either + or - to other users, and the karma is the overall of the votes.
I belive that people vote + for help and - for rudeness or misbehaving, though my karma is still 0...
