Would anyone be interested in joining a group with people recently diagnosed with diabetes -- I was just diagnosed and really need to start watching my carb intake and wondering if there are any of you that would be interested in this discussion

    Hi Cloudy.. welcome to MFP!

    Just as an FYI, there is an awesome group on here call Type 2 Diabetics... it has loads of resources and people to help if youre interested; I was diagnosed 3 years ago and found it extremely helpful... if you check it out, make sure to read the intro and some of the links - best one for me was one called. hmmmm.. something like "bloodsugar 101" lol.. anyway here's the link in case it helps! Cheers!

    No worries... I remember being completely overwhelmed when I first came here on how everything worked; and a little information overload too!! Took me a while to figure out what worked for me and what didn't, its a great community tho and so many people willing to help you out; don't be afraid to ask questions and reach out !
