  • I'm 5' 4'', weigh 187 pounds and am a type 2 diabetic. I have kidney damage from a bone marrow transplant 6 years ago, so I can't take metformin. I use Humalog if my BG is over 150 and take 6 units of Lantus at bedtime. For the last few weeks, I've been consistently under 150 so I haven't had to use the fast acting…

  • Hi fellow diabetics! I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about 25 years ago, but I was able to control it through diet and exercise for many years. In 2013, my fasting glucose was consistently high, so I was put on metformin. Unfortunately, in 2014, I had to have a bone marrow transplant and the chemo did some damage to…

  • I'm so glad that you are finding balance in your eating plan, Ollie. You give me hope that I can get to that place, too! I'm an all or nothing kind of gal.

  • I've been hit and miss on MFP for several years, but really need to get serious after six years of health set-backs (including a bone marrow transplant and six surgeries). I walk quite a bit and play golf, but my hard-core workout days are behind me. I do much better with my eating when I have accountability partners. I…

  • I came late to the party, but I want to play! I've been really watching what I eat and logging everything for two weeks tomorrow. I'm down about 8 pounds so far, but know that this will slow.
