Yea!!!! Weight going down!!!!!
Being a diabetic, my weight has been up/down, probably because I've always been a non-active person. Recently lost 10 pounds, but over Christmas went up about six!!! I have my next diabetic check up in Feb., and I aim to be below what I was a last check up, which was 159. Today I was 162.4, so I'm coming down!!! I try to stay on a 1200 cal. diet, which my Dr. put me on in 1999, when I was diagnosed with diabetes. Would love to hear from other diabetics. Mary

Re: Yea!!!! Weight going down!!!!!
Great job Mary!! I'm not diabetic but my mom is- she has been doing Weight Watchers and has been successful on that. A few years ago she lost 50lbs on it (unfortunatly she ended but gaining it back but she's back on again).

Thanks, Colleen!!!! So nice to chat with you again!!!! Oh, I feel for your Mom!!!! My first weight loss after my diagnosis, I went down to 125, and I looked too thin, but I liked it that I could get into a size 8 slacks!!! I find that when I'm out walking around all day, like shopping, the exercise contributes to my weight loss, and it burns up that extra sugar, so I don't feel sluggish!!!! Tell your Mom I'm pulling for her!!  Mary

Re: Yea!!!! Weight going down!!!!!
That's a great job!
I have a similar story- I was 274lbs, on four different meds and decided to do something about it - especially since I wanted to get preggers this year (2011).
Long story short after starting to diet this past March, I lost a total of about 60lbs..now working on another 40lbs.
The good thing is that I'm now not on ANY diabetic meds at all.

Thanks!!! That's fantastic, Danielle!!!!! My first Dr. took me off my diabetic oral med., because with weight loss, my blood sugar was "normal"; My next Dr. said the first Dr. shouldn't have done that; I have a new peachy keen Dr., who I really like, so once I get down far enough, we'll see what he advises!!! Congrats on the weight loss!!! I know how tough it is!!!!! Mary
