New to Boards and Hello to all!

I love this site! It is so easy to use and I can take it on my phone with me.
I have Diabetes and I am trying to get off my insulin pump. I have now lost 15 lbs and many inches.
I also am an incomplete C5-6 quadrapeligic. My goal is huge. i have now met my first goal and have turned off my insulin pump! :happy:
Still hard to choose the right food combinations that will not spike or stress my body and spike my sugars. Now my battle is trying to eat enough each day and meet the goal of the calories. I find though if I try to eat the calories given when I exercise, I gain weight.:noway:
This is a tough road. I have a second goal. I want to reach my goal wieght in hopes that I can support myself and stand and hopefully walk. It is a huge endeavor but I believe I can do it.:laugh: ya, ya, ya!
My ultimate goal is to lose 106 lbs. I have broken the goal up into smaller steps so it does not seem so huge.
Look forward to reading others stories and hope we can all encourage each other! :flowerforyou:
