Greetings from Long Island
 

Hi, I am a type 2 diabetic diagnosed 7 years ago and primly had it earlier then that as they say typically one has lived with it for 5 years before being diagnosed with it. I first was on insulin shots but now just have to take a pill. It is so important to keep good diet control. It took me many years to get this through my head lol.

Welcome to the Forum! The good diet control concept is difficult to grasp, I am glad that you were able to make the transition. Good luck with your management.

Where in Long Island are you from? I am from Syosset originally.
