| Who did you last talk to about diabetes? |
We officially launched my new cookbook last night so I spoke to several people about diabetes. It was astonishing how many people are buying it for their friends who have the condition. |

Adopting a healthier lifestyle and publishing a book! |

43mmol/mol (6.1 per cent). |
