Hello all! My name is Laura. I'm 26, a mother, wife, and nurse. As of 6 months ago, a new onset type 2 diabetic. Mild at this point, requiring just oral medication. I have been working at losing weight since my diagnosis, and so far am down 50-55 lbs. I'm here mainly to tell you it CAN be done. I have not tried any weight loss gimmicks, just a very strict diet and some exercise. I still have 60-80 lbs I'd like to lose, but am on my way with my own goals. I'm here if anyone would like encouragement!
