There are quite a few people in my office now using sit-to-stand desks. I sent a scary article around about a year or so ago about the health issues, but I think it's mostly the availability of reasonable quality converters (Varidesk etc) that's really changed things.
I'm between offices too much to have one myself (I'd need 3), so I just concentrate on having a regular walk around the office instead, and having all meetings as stand ups. And - on the insulin front - be sure to read up on (and cut down on) the sugar that's crammed into everything these days.
