Weight loss is key to control diabetes at any stage. I am T1 diabetic and weight loss controls it with as little insulin as can be managed. Diabetic tendencies never go away but manageable and up to you with diet...exercise.....weight loss and meds if need be. Hi fiber low carb foods are key too. I like the low glycemic…

Many know these same exact feelings that you do...oh happy day!!

Tell your parents too that it is never too late to change....even little changes to start. Tell them all the time!

All I can say is I am so sorry :( Stay strong and talk to them often so as you can live with no regrets. Its never too late to change your life <3

Look at others succeeding and it is catching! Nothing is stopping you but you! What people or past experiences are whispering in your ear?

Yes you were cheekier :D

Who said mental illness?? ;)

I bought a retro vitamix and it could smooth out a cardboard box if need be.Great buy for me on ebay with its red/black and stainless steel style.

If your calorie budget allows....go for it! Just track it!

Wow! Bet your back story would be an eye opener for many! Family can be the best of the supporters or the worst of enemies!

Throw up some pictures.....would love to have seen how you looked and imagined it all :D

Yes so true....wondering if its a little slower because of our insulin use (???)

I am finding to reduce my ratios and not just feed insulin.....not good but nice to know thats its an issue that is shared.

I too am an insulin pump user too...you find that with the use of insulin makes weight loss a little more of a challenge? Have you suffered hypo episodes?

Yes!

You're shrinking!! <3

I despise overly sensitive individuals.

Now I should add that as a representative of a profession....I probably would not hire an overly tatooed or obvious pierced individual. Some jobs it would be fitting. But it would limit opportunity and college/university opportunities.

I am 61yo and couldnt care less! I see it as a rebellious state of youth. I know many in my generation who feel the same. Every generation has its "thing". It is typically outgrown. No biggie!

Count anything you put in your mouth....nothing is free but water! Even veggies have calories.

What a cutie!!!

I would see doctor only because if its infected.....extremities are to take seriously. You may have to lay off of running until you get a handle on this.

It really is how important it is for you to make mindful choices.Is it important to you or concern you at all? I see so much sugar...candy and soda on your daily menu that my pancreas went into shock! If you have junk available to you...I am sure there has got to be healthier CHOICES as well. A premade sandwich or a…

Last year this time......visited canada as a tour holiday. My joints were screaming because it was a bit chilly. Got home to california a warmed up and I was fine. I could not live comfortably in a coooold climate.

Change the subject and just say you dont know what your goal is. You'll know when you get there and what is realistic to maintain and how good you feel in your skin. .......subject closed! No numbers! Its private.

This can't be the same person!

My face and neck and clavicle is first noticeable by others.

You look great!! Yes you should share such an achievement! Doncha just feel better in your skin???? Great work!

You are a champ at this.....YEA!!!

Youre a good Mom and wife......how else are they to ever learn? <3
