I stumbled across this website a couple of months ago looking for dieting advice for type 1 diabetics for weight loss, and ended up spending a good couple of hours here on the forums lurking.
I've only just started exercising in earnest agan (more then a half an hour walk every odd day), and so was delighted when I found my way back here looking for information. It seems that there is so many lovely people, and reading all these posts makes me feel so happy for everyone (who I don't even know yet)
Anyway, I'n trying to loose a bit of weight to help me control the diabetes better, and to try and regain a bit of control over my whole life. I study full time with a pretty hard degree, and often find myself comfort eating or overeating as a reward for an achievement. Further, what I really want is to be more lean and muscular. I was pretty active a couple of years back, and want to go back to how I was then, both mentally and physically.
I look forward to spending may more hours on here
(and of course, many more hours jumping up and down sweating and cursing at the gym instructor or the DVD player)
All the best!
