It's never to late!! Glad to have ya!!

Hello I started out on Humalog 70/30 as a child and as an adult once I became pregnant went on humalog R and Lantus now I am on Novolog and Lantus. I do count carb to see how much insulin I need to take per meal and I count calories as well for diet purposes. The average diabetic should be on a 1500-2000 diet . I use to…

:smile: Im so excited!! Cant wait to start this journey with you guys please look at new posting and place your beginning weight, 6 week goal, and final goal. Good Luck !! I will also post things to try to help us as diabetics tips to live better lives. This is going to be great for me as well because having this for 20…

exercise actually raises bs and it comes down about two hours later. If exercising before bed be sure to eat light snack before turing in like and orange or apple something with 15-30 carbs so you wont bottome out.

I had a really hard time seems like I only loss when I was not on my best behavior. Insulin is a helps our body keep fat thus we will not lose weight like everyone else. Often my friends lose 20lbs and Im still stuck at 5 lol. yet I learned that with exercise it does help. I have been doing zumba now for about 1-5 months…

I think its a good show from what I have seen yet I think they lose it unhealthy not healthy! Who loses that much weight without starvation?? only bypass people lol. Well Ill stick with my mini loses I will keep it off longer plus I am learning a new life style.

Insulin will not help you lose it will instead slow you down. Insulin helps us keep fat by helping us process our foods. Without it most of those calories would pass right through but that is bad for us! Very dangerous!! I had Diabulimia in College and it was terrable. As I look back I cant believe I done that to myself. I…

nice however I do not know of a insulin that helps with weight loss. I wish I can only lose when I am not managing so well. However finidng the median would be great

change yoru basal rate this will help lots. I have issues losing to my body holds on to it I was diagnosed at 12 too and am now 31. It is a life long struggle where we never seem to win. We often feel like falures becasue of it but keep in mind that anything that will make you healthier is winning. Stay focused and keep a…

the lows are very dangerous just as the highs and kill brain cells so be careful I passed out and fell with my last from lows. You have been one since 5 you know your body better than any doct out there :wink:

Ive had two babies and type one one at 25 and one at 30 and guess what when Im preg the numbers are much better. Dont worry about it things will come you will see. As far as your numbers now try to get it down to more like a 6 because the baby is affected before you even know you are preg so before you try get them down a…

I think that the speach was very nice and educational. She not only addressed bullying but she addressed that children learn from what they see. Being overweight may not be healthy but we all know that weight is a struggle!! There are many small people who are very unhealthy. I have a friend who is bulimic and very sick…

It can be done slowy but surely. I am the same way two kids, full time job, and full time master student. I am doing it squeezing in at least three days a week exercise but I try to aim for four. Good luck!! Add me if you want we can stay motivated together!!

I care less however next time maybe you should both move over to another treadmill that way there is no space between. Forums are very opinionated as a matter of fact the posting was based on opinion and not fact. looks like this posting went in the opposite direction of were it was thought to go. Oh well.... A gyms a gym…

how was she suppose to know it was your fiance?? maybe she joined you all for motivation so that she could be between two people instead of being alone across the room. Maybe she could have asked but being that there was a gap I wouldnt have thought you were together either.

I dont care for the heat here in the south it takes my breathe so I stay out of it as mucha as possible

I am a emotional eater have been since I can remember. While some lose while under stress I gain. I have gained 50 lbs since my husband got laid off and is not working. I have tried to get it off over the last 3 yrs but I just lose and gain again. Being stressed food is my comfort it fills the void. I am however working on…

Congrats to every one seems like we are all doing good as far as inches and Im gonna try to not focus on the numbers. Im watching my calories close this week so maybe just maybe thatll help

Thanks everyone I am going to stay focused I am at the 3 month range right now. I will def check out those fb page links. :flowerforyou: Thanks:flowerforyou:

Seems as though there would be more diabetics out there who struggle is there anyone else that would lik to share their challenges and how they hav overcome them?

Well it looks as if everyone of you are getting benefits from zumba guess the key thing is to be patient and stick to it. I will def keep this in mind and keep doing my zumba 4 days a week. I found that I have miscalculated my calories giving myself to many a day so I am hopeful that next week I will shed a pound or two.…

I have a feelig Ill get on the scale one day an be surprised if I keep it up so for now I staying focused and remembering the words of my coworkers and my husband and that is that Iook slimmer :happy:

:smile: Thanks I try to keep in mind that muscle weighs more than fat I can tell a difference in the waist line and my shoulders and back so I am going to stick to it
