Post Edited: 08.03.2023 @ 22:52 PM by BigMacca matthewvc said:anyone on here been told they're "pre-diabetic"? I've had bloods done and came back with HbA1c at 42 mmol everything else is good, HDL/LDL, Test/FSH/LH, ALT, AST and so on diet is around 4000kcal and BW 104.5kg with a nice layer of fat (fatty natty atm) Is this an anomaly from just stuffing a ton of cals in or something requiring a fundamental change in diet (quite carb heavy) Being pre diabetic and slamming loads of carbs is only going to end one way. Full on diabetes! Basically, your body can't handle your carb intake (either tissues are becoming desensitive to insulin, or much more rarely you may not be producing enough insulin). The best thing you can do is control this through diet and, at this stage, it's possible to reverse the condition (assuming it's deceased insulin sensitivity that's the cause). You need to do your own reading, but basically your want to be ultra low carb (under 30g a day) for a a spell (4-6) weeks, then start introducing carbs once a week for a couple of meals and monitoring you blood glucose levels over the following 24 hours to see how they react and reassess from there. If you do nothing, you'll need in Metformin before long, then increasing dosages of before it becomes infective and you require insulin. There is hope. My Dad was right at the end of the pre-diabetic scale when he was 66 and they wanted him go straight to insulin. We changed his diet and he's still going strong 11 years later. He's recovered enough insulin sensitivity to be able to eat carbs 3 times a week and still have acceptable markers | |||

It's a nightmare trying to buy supplements like this as there are always bunk products out there. A personal recommendation from an upstanding gent is always the way to go | |||

Post Edited: 12.01.2023 @ 23:35 PM by BigMacca jt said:I know there was one a few years back but i cannot find it. I was wondering if my recent malaise could be due to my natural Testosterone production going on a permanent holiday My GP kindly did a blood test kidney liver thyroid all perfect Testosterone "normal" for the NHS normal is between 9 and 34 I scored 14 which I think is pretty low in the normal range sadly I have no data from 2 10 or 20 years ago to compare but I would like to think my Test would of been much higher up in the normal range. I have no plans to compete again the NHS won't give me TRT so my dilemma is do I go black market or wait another couple of years till the rest of my test pisses off. You don't have to go black market Mr T, there are perhaps providers out there that can sort you out TRT wise. I've seen 'The Mens Health' clinic (Plymouth) and Dr Savage (Doncaster based) mentioned positivity over the last few years on other forums. I'd go that way, at least for the first year, so that you're under full medical guidance whilst you're getting the meds/doses dialed in. I hope you manage to get sorted buddy | |||

Wigan said:5 but should really have been a fail Got to a point where I couldn’t come up with a word with what I had left so resorted to trying random combinations of what sort of sounded like a word, on my third random combination I struck lucky. I had to look up what the word meant, as had never heard of or used it. No pride in todays success. 5 for me as well. Similar to you with the random combos as I knew what 1345 were but couldn't make a word that I actually knew. I guessed at the actual word then had to look it up | |||

Fatpete said:So lucky and yet so unlucky Three today and could so easily have been two GGGXY was the first go so now I have the first four letters and I can think of only two options First option involves a repeat letter which normally is a good idea, option two involves a new letter which I consider a much more likely word. So I went for option two - I shouldn't have Damn it !!!! "If you can use a letter more than once, then do so" Mr Pete - 2022 | |||

Wigan said: I read an article yesterday that suggested the NY Times had updated the word list recently and if you hadn’t refreshed your browser you would still be on the old version of the list, which may explain the differences. Incidentally the new list doesn’t include plurals that end in s or es apparently, so ducks would not be on it but geese would. I’ve attempted to refresh my browser so will see what tomorrows word brings. Very interesting Sir. I ended up refreshing my browser session a couple of weeks ago as I changed my phone. I created an account and it immediately gave me another word for that same day and wiped out the stat for the previous word. The Mrs has just refreshed her browser session and got a fresh word, however it's reset her stats as well! | |||

Wigan said: If her word was a colloquial term for a canine, she must be on the same word list as me. If not I don’t know what the hell is going on. It was indeed. It's odd though, I've gone through to the Wordle site on three different devices, all using different IP's (via vpns) and I always get there same word .. | |||
