Old dog, new tricks
I resolved to lose weight about two years ago. With the help of Noom I lost 55 lbs. I started to take Pilates lessons, walked more, and reduced my A1C from 7.2 to 6.0. I’m diabetic 2. I gained about 10 lbs back and want to lose it and then some more. Being diabetic makes food choices more complex.

I'm looking for more people like me. I was misdiagnosed as a Type 2. LADA is Type 1. Adult onset. If you come in overweight docs will assume you are Type 2. And wont test! I was put on the wrong med for 2 years. Are there any other LADA's out there?

My name is Bree. New to the community.
I lost my sense of smell when I got Covid a few years ago, and now, as time is going on, it is also affected my taste, so there are many things that taste terrible to me that used to be good, including healthy foods.

There is support for the Dexcom G6 CGM, but not the G7. I am new to wearing a device and got the newest model, but then found out that it's not supported. That's my fault, but we should have support for the latest model. Thanks!
