Here I am with my diabetes struggle

Hi, I am 60 years old and have struggled with my weight since I started elementary school. I began to gain and just continued, with small breaks where I would lose 50 or so pounds and then gain it back. Was diagnosed with high blood in 79 and with diabetes in 93. Gained up to 375 lbs before I finally got to talk with a diabetic nutritionist who told me what carbs were and how they are metabolized in the body and how many I should have a day. Started logging my food on this site and on everydayhealth.com (which is down right now) and that seems to help me more than anything. I have lost down to 239.7 lbs and my sugars have been doing great. This is the only thing that I have found that really keeps me on track. If I am honest then the site lets me know how many calories, carbs and other things that I have had during the day and this as well as logging it on face book as well is helping to keep me honest and hopefully inspire others who are struggling.
