    welcome to the group...dont know alot about diebeties...but do know about losing weight with health problems...
    Your 1st step is being here..
    For me losing the 1st 9 pounds was easy...after that was hell...
    Its learning about yourself..what you should eat or not eat...what you can do for exercise or not do...whatever you do...dont give up or in...there are some days we want to give up...we get tired or hungry for the stuff we used to eat...and there are days you are going to slip..but get right back up...and use the support of this group...good luck sweetie..you can do it....:smile:

    I am also Type 2 Diabetic. More like border-line, really. The doctors have already taken me off of my medicine. But... I've started to backslide... so, here I am too. I've only been on MFP for a day, though... and already seeing so much encouragement. I think you've come to the right place. Welcome... and Good luck.
