Anyone here diabetic?

[Random Axe]

I was wondering cause I was recently diagnosed with type2, which, being a Megohead, kind of made me chuckle.

Now the doctor said it was early stages, but it still sucks as I've made a total life change about diet and health overall. In the three weeks since I got the news, I've completely cut out suger from my diet along with all the white stuff like rice, bread and pasta. As a result of my stict diet, I've now gone from BS level of 310 down to 112 today.

I just thought it might be helpful for someone to talk to about this stuff and maybe throw in some Megos too. Perhaps I'm the only one. I'm actually taking this as a blessing in disguise that woke me up from potential health disasters down the road.

There's a thread around here somewhere about another member -- I think it's bobbait -- being diagnosed, and lots of other guys chimed in with their own type 2 stories. I'm type 1, which is kind of a different ballgame, although the diet and exercise concerns are the same. It's really not that difficult (for most people) and you seem to be doing exactly what needs to be done. Hang in there; soon dealing with the condition will be like second nature. You won't even think about it, and you'll be alot healthier.

Unless I am mistaken, I think Bobbait recently had a similar post, he just got diagnosed as well.
