Hello Karen

Quote From: happyzot

Hi Friends, 

I am insulin resistant, and on the verge of diabetes.  My blood sugars have been very good since I started the Weight Loss Challenge over 2 years ago.  I am being very careful, as I don't want to have my condition develop into type 2 diabetes, but if it does, it's not the end of the world.  I have done a lot of reading on the web, and there is a very good website by author David Mendosa.  www.  mendosa.   com  (without the spaces) hoping that the post will not be deleted, but this is a very helpful link with lots of good information!!!   

 

HUGZ
GOD BLESS
Karen
 

I am glad to hear that you haven't yet developed diabetes, Please continue to watch it, It is not a very fun thing to have!! I never thought that it was as serious as it was until i developed it. I guess i just never understood the seriousness of the disease.  But now i know that it is a very serious disease and you don't want to get it.  It is good that you are studying about it and taking precautions to not develop it, if I had done that i may have not gotten it! You are smart in doing that. I hope that my children doesn't develop it later on. But i will try and tell them all about it so they too can watch for warning signs. I didn't even know the warning signs and probably had the disease for a long time before I found out. I was really thirsty all the time and couldn't get enough to drink, and I had to go to the bathroom every little bit, Just thought I would tell you some of my warning signs so you could look for them, even though if you have read up on it , I'm sure you already know them.  You continue to take good care of yourself. 

                           Till next time,
