Hello!

I am finally taking time for me and working towards better health. I have always been over weight and my self esteem was hit pretty hard for "being fat". Finally I am realizing I have fat on my body, but I am NOT fat. There is a difference, and I deserve to be healthy and loved.

I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes the beginning of Feb 2016, so the urgency to make changes is definitely here now. Wish I'd done it at PreDiabetes but this is where I am and changes are being made.

I would love to have friends from this community that I could support and get support from if anyone would like to, please add me.

Thank you,
Sharolyn

    ...not sure what this means yet, but I like it!! Thank you. <3

    Basically it means I am not the fat that is on my body. I have fat on my body, but the fat is not who I am. I was always made to feel less than lovable because I was fat.
