    I'm also a newbie. Working on getting as healthy as I can with the time I have left. I'm 63, divorced, have my own home in a rural community, have a mini doxie and a chinese crested who both keep me going. I've already lost 75 but still have at least 100 more to go if not more so I joined for motivation and to find others who know the struggle.

    Welcome to MFP @jollyslickkrissy2015 !
    I was diagnosed T2D in February.
    I was slowly working on weight loss before then, but that kicked me into high gear and I’ve lost 65ish pounds since then.
    There’s a Type 2 diabetes support group here. A great spot to ask questions about stuff. @Sarahluc2022 you might want to come join too!
