      I'm so glad you had a great trip and a good visit with your father. I'm so jealous, i wish i could go to Hawaii too. Oh well, someday.... I'm glad you're working on your health, it's so important to everyone, and it's a stupid thing that this disease is the catalyst to make us sit up and pay attention. But i know i feel so much better and healthier just by changing my diet. I joined a gym today, and plan on being dilligent in attending. I've reached the point where i'm not concerned about what others think of me, just what i think of myself. I'm doing this for me. Hugs and kisses, take care..... Deb :0)

      I am recently diagnosed, it's really thrown me...I am a really healthy person, long term vegitarian, within normal weight and trying to do this with diet and excercise. I'm pretty confused. That's just today. I will have a handle on this soon. I hope.

      Treatments

      Dietary Modification Too Soon to Tell
      I am getting really familiar with low glycemic foods, who would think that raisons or fresh papaya would be bad for me...they are.
      Eating Healthier Foods Too Soon to Tell
      I thought I was a healthy eater. Surpise....even more things to change!! It's all good. O.K. it's a little depressing too.
      Cassia Too Soon to Tell
      At least it tastes good!!
