After being diagnosed with diabetes 30 May this year as of this morning's checkup I am: 1) No longer classified as a diabetic 2) no longer on any meds at all aside from my daily allergy tab. I was even able to dump the BP meds I've taken the last 10 years.

    I'm pretty revved up about it, and I wish you could no longer be diabetic with just a change in diet Amber (hugs). I have a horrible cold and I'm treating my self on this rainy and dreary day with a cuppa.

    You are awesome! Great job on taking your health into your own hands. Doctors cannot cure diabetes and heart disease; they can only treat the symptoms. It is up to us to make the changes that can reverse these devastating diseases.

    OMG they are drumming hard here in Northern Ireland (and we are quite good at drums here from lambegs to bodhrans!) You so exemplify what this site can do and you are truly inspirational. Well done - that is a life saving achievement!! My jaw is on the floor! I don't know what to say except - and please accept my apology now - but bloody well done!!!
