...But not in a good way.
So...I have diabetes. I can't believe I even just typed those words.
But, I'm not here to whine. It's the result of my own bad choices. Now it's up to me to get things on track.
I'm on metformin (just started) and was already under doctor's orders to lose min. 30 lbs. by next April...which I thought was doable. I lost some weight last year but put it back on over the winter. I'm back where I was before I started working on this in 2013. At least it's no higher.
So I just wanted to see if anyone here on the board has any advice other than the standard "get more exercise, eat less, especially carbs". I've been doing that anyway, and seeing as shit just got real, I intend to keep at it.
Any pro tips on living with this? I would really appreciate some moral support and practical advice.
