    Welcome to MFP @pwrsthatbe

    My husband is diabetic. He started MFP last August, and came off all diabetes meds in February.

    Weight loss has been slow for him the past three months, yet inches lost has bounced right along. He’s down two sizes and we’ll be talking soon about another size down.

    I was overjoyed when he bought new drawers this weekend. I told him his boxers looked like an Amish lady’s skirt. He was not amused.

    I've just been diagnosed Type 2 (A1C 6.8) and will soon be starting Metformin. I already had an active lifestyle (swimming1200 yds, 3 days weekly plus alternating 1+_ mile walks on non swim days. Presently 208 lbs striving for 185. Working on modifying diet to aid in lowering A1C. I'm very interested in learning all I can about Diabetes, lowering glucose, and improving diet.

    Hi! I'm diabetic type 2 - no medication. I've been able to use myfitnesspal, diet & exercise to keep my numbers "normal" for quite a while. I also have PCOS which is the cause of my insulin resistance.
