Hi Melissa, I have had diabetes for 4 years. Like others I did good at first and just went off for a couple of years. Mind you I did take my medication, but ate very bad. December 2011 my A1C was up and my doctor let me have it. She doubled my meds and told me to eat better. I started the 1st of December and watched my Carbs and no sugar. It was very hard but I knew I had to see the doctor in 3 months. I was able to drop 14 lbs and 4 pant sizes in the 3 months. My doctor even saluted me. I fill better and my family knows that I should not eat sweets. If you are really desparate then eat what one thing, but don't make a habit of doing it every day. Just remember that "Attitude is Everything"
