Well, I went to the hospital last week because I was feeling weak and just not myself. Being type 2 daibetic I take my health very serious. The GP doctor told me she thought I was taking too much medication since I had lost weight (thanks MFP), eating a great diet, and was exercising regularly. So, I set an appointment to see the endocrinologist so he could assess the situation a little more in detail. He ordered blood work and today we got those results. After 5 years of trying to get off of insulin today I have reached that goal. A glorious day I have to tell you.

    Congratulations! You must feel like you've really reached a huge landmark in your journey. I told my husband that my biggest goal is to get off the high blood pressure medication. I started this journey because I was told that I have prediabetes. After losing 16 pounds my Fasting Blood Glucose levels went from 115 to 93 (in six weeks). Keep up the healthy life style it's clearly working!:flowerforyou:

    Hurray! That's fab! Not least as being on insulin makes it harder to lose weight. Well done.
