Default Re: Yippee, I found the Diabetic board!

Hi Sassy -- I hadn't seen your thread before. Welcome to the diabetic area (even though you've been here a long time). I was diagnosed Type 2 last year and to begin with took the pills and hoped everything would be ok.

Before my mom, husband and I were all diagnosed last year (ya think maybe it has something to do with the way we were eating??) the only other people in my family who were diabetic were my great grandmother (mom's grandmother) and my uncle (mom's brother). I was always told growing up that diabetes skips a generation so I figured I was "safe" -- nope, not true.

I changed my tone the first of the year, I don't want complications of diabetes to get the better of me - I want to make changes now so I can have less complications in all areas of my life from here on out.

I hope you are doing well on this WOE. I also hope to see more of your and other diabetic posts here
