Hello my name is Michelle and I live in NJ. I currently learned im Type 2 Diabetic two weeks ago and that's when I decided I wasn't going to claim that diagnosis and start doing something to get rid of it. I met with my Diabetic counselor and she taught me everything I needed to know. With that said I have lost 7.1 pounds in 2 weeks. And I will continue to lose weight until my health is in a better place.

    Way to go!! Great numbers for 2 weeks! I hung right around that nasty borderline diabetes number for years...well it tipped not in my favor this spring. No way, I'm not going there... since Easter I have lost 38 lb., got much more to go but I ain't stopping! You don't stop either...stay motivated, and let's not accept type 2 diabetes - it's completely reversible! You go girl!!

    That sounds like such a frightening diagnosis. Good on you for choosing to tackle it. Your battle is inspiring.
