    I was diagnosed in my teens, which was a loooong time ago. Never been overweight. Key is proper management, your numbers being just a bit off, can make a huge difference. Make sure you keep up with your dr appointments, do not let anyone but an endocrinologist try to manage this (not any other dr), take medication according to instructions (usually this means morning, empty stomach, not eating for at least half an hour afterwards) and do not take any other meds or supplements without instructions from the endocrinologist, not even supposedly "innocent" things.
