new here

my name is polly and i have diabetes, my goal is to get down to 120lbs my pre baby weight after having two children 31 years ago.
my secondary goal is to get off the insulin and diabetes meds and go back to pre air force weight, that is when i felt the best. But i also have one annoying habit that is stopping me drinking copious amounts of pepsi and not liking diet drinks that much.

  • i also had two knees replaced and ankle fused last year so certain excercises are not in my repitoire

    Im Robyn and im in 10th grade ( I know it is supposed to be adults) and I felt like it was time to stop the cycle and get healthy. My parents have diabetes so I know if i continue on the path im going that I will get it too. Obesity ends here.
