Hello from Washington State

  • Lovely evening ladies and gents,
    I was scouring the internet today looking for support,information and like minded souls on my journey back to good health. Looks like I found the right place here.
    I am 43 years old and a mother. I was diagnosed with type 2 Diabetes on May 26,2013 and at that time weighed 228lbs. Which is considered very obese considering my height of 4-11. So I began the Metformin and all the lifestyle changes. Silly me, I thought all the lifestyle changes were suppose to feel good.HA. Trying to maintain 1200 calories a day, exercising for at least 20 min. a day (walking),the lack of energy, sleeping problems,headaches,counting everything I eat and drink...whew..and this is good health they say. At any rate I plug along each day and don't back down. I keep a strong, twisted humor streak and try to live in each day.
    Well, that is the long and short about me. I wanted to introduce myself to all of you and to say that I am thankful I found this place.I look forward to the wisdom, the laughs and the sharing. Have a beautiful evening.

    Tangible Soul~

    Start weight: 228 lbs. Current weight: 214 lbs.
