in Introduce Yourself
Hi iam Kathee. Two weeks ago I was told I am type 2 diabetic. Thought my world crashed! It does run in my family and in have been trying hard not to get that disease. After having a meltdown, I got on here.
I suffer from sciatica and exercise is very hard on me, but I walk as much as I can. I cut my calorie intake to 2000. It's working for me! Alittle over a week, I lost 10 pounds. Iam very proud of myself.
My blood sugar isn't high or out of control, so iam hoping to keep my diet going and being active.
Thanks or having me here!!

    Congrats on your success. :)

    There is a Type 2 Diabetes group that may be a good place to check in. If you have chosen to use a low carb diet to control the disease, the Low Carber Daily is another healpful group.
