Hey everyone! I've been using MFP for a little over a month now and I am excited that I am actually seeing it work for me. I've tried losing weight before and nothing has stuck, so I am proud to say that this is definitely putting me on the right track to where I need to be.
Last fall I was put on medications for high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes. Which it came as quite a shock to me about the diabetes, because I had no symptoms and having a brother with type 1 diabetes I knew what signs to look out for and I showed no symptoms. Since I have started MFP I can safely say that my blood sugar readings have never been better!!

Now the reason I am posting this. There is a program run by the American Diabetes Association every year called Step Out, and this is actually my second year participating in this event. Here is a link to the event: http://stepout.diabetes.org/
The walk I am participating in is in Dallas held on November 5th.

If this isn't where to post this or I am not supposed to please let me know!

Is anyone else doing the Step Out program with the ADA?

    Honestly? there isn't really a place you can post this....


    According to the forum rules...

    FORUM RULES

    1) No advertising or self-promotion. You may not post advertisements for other services, websites, etc. which intend to sell products or services for monetary gain. Any such links will be removed at moderator discretion without warning and could result in your posting privileges being revoked. You also may not make any posts from which you might financially benefit, i.e. "message me for more info", "I can get you free samples", "visit my site for more info", etc.

    I'm not sure in this case if it would count, but since it does involve money, I think you may want to remove the post to be safe...
