Diabetes Type 2 Support Group
Type 2 Diabetes is a condition in which the body either does not produce enough insulin or does not make efficient use of it. Insulin is a hormone needed to convert food into glucose, a sugar that the body uses for energy. Without enough insulin, glucose can accumulate in the blood, and can cause serious health problems such as heart disease and strokes and organ damage...

a good diet and moderate exercise and regular checkups with your dr and i found my diabetes educator to be really helpful and be honest with your bsl, prayer god has a plan for all of us even if we cant see or understand it now

MrsFrisbee (who was a regular here until her daughter was born) was definitely a success story. She struggled at first but got her feet under her and had a perfect pregnancy despite gestational diabetes. Was that implicated in the two pregnancy losses, or did you have diabetes before ever getting pregnant? What are you up against here? We'll help in any way we can.

i was diagnosed at my first visit with my first pregnancy they said they i was diabetic but didnt know about it til then. The doctors say that my firt two loses could have been from my diabetes but with my first they are say that the cause of death was imbilical cord accident. But they also say that there is a high chance of stillbirth im women with diabetes as well.My A1C was 12.9 with my first preganancy which is twice the amount they want for a woman to get pregnant. I also do believe that God has a plan for all of us as well. All i can do is pray and take extra care of my BSs. Thanks

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
