    I am diabetic also , I was doing good I have lost 100 pound and kept it off for about 6 months but now I have started putting the weight back on so far only 15 pounds but I never got down to my goal weight so I have a lot more than 15 to lose. So now it time to get back on track . Don't focus so much on the losing weight just try and get healthy and the weight will come off .

    I decided to start with getting blood sugar down and with that have lost weight. My worst time is in evenings after dinner. Have been seeing dr. Every two weeks which makes me accountable. Writing food down has helped me also. But as I said, nights alone are the hardest.
    I agree, keeping the weight off is the hardest of all. Keep writing what you eat down and don't think about the total, just 10 lbs at a time. Thanks for answering me. My name is Vicki.

    Forgot to say congratulations on what you have lost so far!
