Walleyebob977,
I'm extremely extremely happy for you. Trust me I know how it feels. I used to relied heavily on diet pills ( I'm extremely embarrassed to say this). I chose the easy way out, never thought that exercise and healthy eating habits would fix my weight problems. Until I reached one point when I knew it was just wrong, and i joined MFP. Since then I lost weight steadily and never have to use or even just consider that pill as a quick fix
Keep trying hard everyday. You are doing great!
Peace out0 -

What a great accomplishment. I'm hoping that some day I can also drop my last metformin pill. I'm glad I've gone from 2- 500 mg. a day to one...but the goal is zero! Good luck on the next A1c.0

So excited for you walleyebob! It's an amazing accomplishment!! Type 2 runs in my family and I was scared I was heading right into it. It's one of the things that motivated me to get healthy. Changing your body in such a dramatic way is so inspiring. Thanks for sharing!0

So excited for you! My goal is to get off the metformin. My bG has dropped dramatically in the last 2 months (yay, CrossFit!!) but I've got a long way to go yet. Hearing y'all's stories is great motivation!0

That wonderful! I was diagnosed a few months ago & have been in denial, thinking I can beat this on my own. I don't remember my exact numbers, but they are just above borderline, so I'm hoping it's not too late. No meds yet & I plan on keeping that way. I have a lot of family history & 2 past gestational diabetes. But I feel if I lose weight & get healthy & still have it, then I know I've done what I can control & the rest is out of my control and I'll just have to live w/it - hopefully w/o meds.0

That's fantastic! One big reason I'm on MFP is because my dad's side of the family all became Type 2 once they hit their 50s (all overweight) and I'm getting close to that age and don't want it to happen to me. I'm making slow but steady progress and stories like yours are my inspiration. Congratulations!0

Thanks for posting this!! I was diagnosed with Type 2 at the end of December 2012, on metformin twice a day. Dietician told me about this site on Feb 4, started logging in on Feb 5 and so far have lost 14 pounds, and morning blood sugar checks have been from 85 to 107. I have a family history of diabetes and the fact that I've spent 25 years behind a desk has not helped, but that is all changing. Will be starting the Spartacus Workout when dvds arrive end of this week and have already started eating a healthier diet. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!0

Thanks again everyone it's a battle everyday as many of you know. I wish the best of luck to all of you that fight diabetes. Keep up the fight. When it comes to eating right and working out there isn't "I'll start tomorrow," tomorrow could be a disease the time is now.0

I just feel like bumping this so others know it can be done.0
