So 6 weeks ago my Dr. said it's time to consider insulin. Up to this point I sort of ignored my T2. I took my meds, most of the time, but I ate anything and everything. Since then I've gotten serious about it. I watch what I eat and don't snack like I used to. I'm a chocoholic, but I've completely given that up. I've also started measuring my BG at least 3 times a day.
So far, I've lost 15 pounds, and my BG is much improved.
I see my Dr. on the 20th. I think he's going to be happy with me. I really hope I can avoid the insulin.
Anyway, I'm now here for the long haul....wish me luck!!
