in Introduce Yourself
on Christmas eve I was diagnosed with type two diabetes. The doctor said I could chase it away with a better diet and exercise so I'm looking for some friends to help me in that effort so far so good I've got most of my numbers back down to normal in only 20 days. I still have 40 more pounds of weight to go. Anyone feel free to friend me and kick my butt to keep me going.

    Hello, I'm also trying to lose weight and keep from becoming a type II diabetic. I have a bad back, I'm attempting to exercise when it can.

    I'm trying to not take diabetic meds for typeII. First trying diet and walking. Any ideas are appreciated.

    Since I have to diet and exercise I'm down the free and easy way. I'm not joining the gym so I walk out my front door and decide left or right. My doc suggested it, because it will help in 2 ways, healthy for me and you get to know your neighbors and neighborhood.
