in Success Stories
I'm not sure if this counts as a success story as I still have a looooong way to go.... but - I just had blood results back and I'm no longer pre-diabetic! Still got a lot of work to do, and the fasting glucose is still at the high end of normal, but - back in the safe zone after losing just 20 pounds!

    Congrats! That is so important for your health. My mom just got put on insulin injections for her type 2 and I know I never want to be there! It does not look like fun.

    That is great and definitely a success! Diabetes can have a terrible effect on your body (I've seen it with my father), so anything you can do to stave it off is a win.

    My Doctor told me I was pre-diabetes back in March. I go Thrusday to see if I've beaten it. I hope I have good news as well...
