- I was diagnosed with T2D about 2 1/2 years ago. I lost about 20 pounds and was doing great. Then, over the last year, I was extremely stressed out, so I gained back about 10 pounds and have not been really good about controlling my diet. I...

- I am having a really hard time finding desert recipes that are low carb but also do not have artificial sweeteners in them.I cannot have any artificial sweeteners because it leaves a horrible aftertaste in my mouth for hours. I can't even stomach...
- I remember when I had gestational diabetes, the nutritionist told me it was OK to have sugar as long as I was looking at the carbs - meaning, it was OK to add a teaspoon of sugar to my coffee instead of a substitute, and it was OK to have a sweet...
- I was recently diagnosed with type2, and I am devastated, but not surprised. It runs in my family - both my parents have it as did my grandmother. I also had gestational diabetes and was told that it was a good indication that I was at a higher...
- My son will be 12 in a couple of weeks and has not been officially diagnosed with OCD (working on it) but I am sure that he has some form of it, along with anxiety and tics. But, my question is about depression. He tells me all the time that he is...
