Hi,

Not sure if this is a thread where I would fit in, but I figured I'd drop a line and give it a try. I've been on another thread pretty regularly and decided this would one I would also like to connect with.

I've been struggling with being borderline Type 2 for a few years no. My doctor says that I am still borderline but it's inching upward and I'm scared. I want to nip it in the bud while I can. I have failed at dieting many many many times over and over in the past. Since January, this is the first time I'm feeling ready to take action for my own sake. I started having some health problems in December that carried me into the new year so it made the "borderline" issue more prevalent and to the forefront of my life. I still struggle with eating foods I shouldn't eat (sweets) but I'm more conscious, I think, of what I eat. Thought, it's a moment by moment struggle for me.

Anyhow, maybe I can learn from you guys and get/give support along the way.

Cheers!
