I contracted Type II diabetes in 2000. Initially, I was afraid to eat. I was put on two medications and was doing okay most of the time. I went to classes and learned a great deal about this disease. At that time, I was overweight and did very little exercise. I knew I had to take control...

How is everyone doing today? I tested at 53 this morning. I was awake at 5:30AM sucking on watermelon glucose tablets. I was sick last night and skipped dinner but still took my full dose of Lantus. Live and learn!
