    I've been a diabetis since 1991 and have struggled with my weight all my life. I am half way to my goal of 154 lbs. You can lose the weight, too. We are here to support you when you need it. Feel free to add me if you wish.

    hi Kaz! type 1, diag'd 4 years ago, at age 31. thought i had been doing really well on my diet and exercise, was down to 367, which was my smallest in a decade. then found out it was the diabetes causing the weightloss. went on insulin. have now gained almost 80 pounds. I think i am finally over the being pissed at the world what the hell is the point attitude I had when I was first diagnosed and am just now starting back on my weightloss journey. I am also working on writing my own diabetic cookbook because I want more than fruit for a sweet snack and am not happy with the cookbooks I have found.
