My name is mike recently diagnosed w.type 2 diabetes 349 pounds at the end of june. I was able to loose 10 pounds in a couple of weeks but have droped 7 pounds already this week. This has been a great tool I did not realize that planning and actually seeing what I consumed in numbers could make that much of a difference.

    My husband was also diagnosed with Diabetes type 2 about a year ago. He took the medicine but nothing else! He is a straight meat, potatotes and Dr. Pepper person. 4 months ago the Doctor gave him a wake up call! Get his blood work in proportion or there is serious consequences! It woke him up. He still is the meat potatoes and Dr Pepper but has really watched his carb intake. He is down to 1 Dr Pepper a week and that is his treat! He lost 12 pounds and is feeling so much better. So hang in there. Long story short. When he started watching his carbs I told him I would to in the process I have lost weight. I eat a little wierd but it works for me. I love fruits and vegetables and meat is sososo. It wasn't to long after this that a friend suggested I check out MFP This is the best place to be everyone is basically in the same boat but for different reasons. It doesn't matter your condition or reason we are all here to lose weight with the encouragement, motivation and help from all our friends. So together we can do this. MFP is great!
