    To the idiot that thinks it is ONLY weight related...my grandmother is an Olympic athlete, was in the Senior Olympics for years and is even in a book- is the most athletic, fit, healthy woman I know. My father (her son) has recently been diagnosed and is just as fit and healthy as she is. As for myself..All of the years I was over 295 pounds, my glucose was NEVER out of whack, and now I am down 80 pounds and all of a sudden it is. Genetics play a big roll in Diabetes..not just weight.

    Type 2 here. Found out in July had surgars as high as 600. As of today my readings are between 95 and 130 with diet and exercise. You can add me as a friend if you want!
