Becoming an ex-diabetic - Barry Landsberg

The modern world is facing an explosion of obesity, diabetes and poor health in general, fuelled by modern lifestyles. Type 2 diabetes is a growing problem which can affect both obesity and health in general, even in its very early stages. Yet in many cases it is totally avoidable. Becoming an Ex-diabetic is written for anyone who has concerns over their weight or blood sugar.

For most of his life, Barry was totally obsessed with food and absolutely loathed exercise. Stuck with the belief that he would be obese for the rest of his life, he had totally given up and did not take care of his health in any way. However, at the age of 50 he was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. At that point he decided to take responsibility for dealing with it.Barry is now slim, fit and living a much healthier lifestyle. His blood sugar has been at a very healthy level for over ten years without the use of medication, and as a result he has now been removed from the diabetic register. Barry's approach was to change his thinking in a way that supports a long-term lifestyle change. He built some mental tools that underpin a successful weight loss and regain a healthy blood sugar level. The eating and activity changes followed naturally and easily. He has written this book to empower people to overcome obesity and diabetes, and to inspire people to take action to prevent them. Barry is based in Milton Keynes.
