Hi, I"m new to this, so bear with me. Hoping to connect with other diabetics to get some tips. I am trying to lose 50 pounds, bring my A1c down & just feel better. :smile:

    I'm also diabetic and hoping to tone up :) I usually test myself before exercise then give a correction dose if needed but keep in mind that exercise also lowers your blood sugars, and if your numbers a bit low have some carbs before (I heard bananas are good slow realising carbohydrates)

    Hope this helps. :D

    Hi, I am an insulin dependent diabetic too. I am losing weight through low carbing. As well as dropping the pounds through this method I have also brought my diabetes under very tight control and am now using less insulin than I ever have before. I feel great and I am full of energy. I love this lifestyle. :)
