"The whole experience was excellent"

1.I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes

2. I discussed this with diabetic nurse

3. Further to above discussion I attended an online diabetes course run by Forth Valley

4. The above was very helpful in my understanding of diabetes

5. I was then given the opportunity to attend weight management course which included an  Active Forth class every week

6. This was excellent. You were weighed at each session, every 2 weeks, and excellent encouragement given. Suggestions  on how to lose/control your weight was given at each session in a very positive way. It was great hearing of the other members experiences. Coming to the group was a very positive experience. The Active Forth class was great.

7. We were given a 3 month free access to Active Forth/gym membership which I found excellent.

8. The whole experience was excellent. I feel being in a group situation and having the positive help/encouragement from the professional has helped me on my weight journey.

9. I was pleased at my last diabetes review that I was in remission.
