Lost ~70 pounds back in 2011 using MFP. Fell off the wagon and gained about 30 back. Recently diagnosed w diabetes a couple months back. Trying to lose ~50 lbs in hopes of shaking it. Changing my job to reduce stress, changing my eating habits to manage glucose levels and slowly getting back in to running and lifting...slowly. In the past I've jumped all in and caused injury.
Looking for a couple like minded friends for encouragement. I'm sure I won't be in the community, daily, but will try to check in regularly.
