Re:Type 2 diabetes: NHS to offer 800-calorie diet treatment by akvadrako on Friday November 30, 2018 @01:04PM (#18571005)
It's not like that because it's all about how you approach the problem. It's easy to do all those things if you have the right mindset. Creating that mindset isn't easy, but wording everything in the worst possible manner is a sure way to make it more difficult.
