I usually say I lost it with the 4 Ds. Diet, Determination, Discipline, and Dedication. And then they want to know if I'm following a specific plan. I answer with there was no pill, potion, or surgery. I log onto MFP every day and track all my food and exercise. Then they quickly lose interest. LOL

I don't know how to add you from here, but feel free to add me. I was diagnosed a couple of months ago. I've had the pre-diabetes for a couple of years now, but did nothing about it.
