Hi all!

Just wanted to say hi and that I am very new to all of this. MFP, this group and type 2. I was dx on march 15th with a BG of 552 and an A1C of 11.3
I have gotten my numbers down to under 100 most of the time and under 140 all the time with the help of diet and medication.

Im very excited to have found this group

    Welcome!! It's so exciting that you are managing your BGs so well! Those are excellent numbers. You can tell that you've worked very hard to get them into the normal range, especially from where you were and in such a short amount of time! Truly commendable.

    We have a fantastic group of people here, and you are most welcome.

    You have made tremendous steps already. Congrats on your hard work. I am a type 2 diabetic for 7 years and have only recently (1/3/13) started to take my diet and exercise seriously. I am on insulin for control and since dropping some weight, my insulin need has been drastically reduced.

    Feel free to add me as a friend. It is really good to surround yourself with others that are in a similar boat!
