Hello all!
 

:) I've been Type 2 diabetic since 2002. I lost 60 pounds after diagnosis by portion control, Metformin and began learning which foods tend to spike my blood sugars. Regained 40 lbs., but working towards losing the weight again and maintaining it. Eight years since becoming diabetic, I have grown older and joints are stiff. I am about to begin a modified version of yoga to improve joint flexibility by using Peggy Cappy's "Easy Yoga for Diabetes". Looking forward to learning and encouraging others!

Welcome to the Forum! :)

Read through the first three threads in the Type 2 Section, when you get a chance, if you have not already done so. These threads will most-likely help you a lot. Self education is one of the keys to successful management of your diabetes, along with a healthy / sensible diet and exercise. Basically, diabetes requires a life-style change for the better. Good luck with your control and management.
