hi clare & welcome

gill, that's great news!

mak - that's another great story, it's so reassuring to read of all these positive experiences

i'm having a bit of a brain fade this morning & wonder if anyone can help me - i know that after my meal i can't eat anything until i test two hours later, but i remember the DE saying something about some drinks being okay, but i'm wondering which ones - obviously im not drinking any full sugar softdrinks at all, but i do have probably one cup of tea a day & some diet cordial or diet softdrink. should i be avoiding these during the 2 hrs or are they all okay to drink? i don't mean tea with a whole heap of milk in it or anything - just a plain green tea.
