Welcome to the Forum!
Congratulations on your weight loss! Hopefully you will get back on the wagon soon. Your body will thank you, down the road.
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.
