I'm still working toward my goal! I am so proud of my self. :happy: I can actually zip my coat with out being out of breath and being scared to breath after it was zipped. Was diagnosed as a diabetic Feb 7, 09, which didn't come as a shock being over weight. Dr was glad to see I had already begun a weight loss program.

    Isn't that fun?! To see a noticeable difference like that?! I remember when I could shut the car door without it hitting my hip, lol. It seems comical now, but it was such a huge step to feeling "normal" at the time!

    Congratulations! I bet you look beautiful in your coat!

    Good for you for taking such a proactive approach to your diabetes!!! :smile:

    I had a very hard time accepting my diabetes and have gone on for too long just avoiding the fact that I am diabetic and that my diabetes won't get any better until I commit to myself that I want to be healthier and to feel better. For far too long I let my pride and depression rule. No more of that!!!

    I wish you all the best! :wink:

    Way to go! I felt the same way when I was no longer out of breath after bending over to tie up my shoes! Ha ha!
