ABOUT ME :-)
I'M 32 YEARS YOUNG ;-)
MARRIED WITH 3 BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN
I WAS ACTUALLY DIAGNOSED WITH GESTATIONAL DIABETES WHILE PREGNANT WITH MY TWINS 4 YEARS AGO & NOW I HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES. MY PRACTITIONER HAS ME ON ORAL MEDS (METFORMIN & DIOVAN-FOR BP) & HAS ME ON A STRICT DIET (WHICH I RARELY FOLLOW--I KNOW--SLAP ME ON THE HAND!). I AM TRYING TO GET A BETTER GRIP ON MY DIABETES BY FINALLY TAKING MY DIET & EXERCISE REGIMEN SERIOUS!!! I'VE BEEN TOLD I NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT--AND FAST!!! MY OBESITY LEAD TO MY DIABETES. I NEED TO LOSE AT LEAST 100 POUNDS TO BE CONSIDERED "ALMOST HEALTHY". MY CO-WORKERS ARE MY INSPIRATION COACHES--I LOVE THEM TO DEATH. RIGHT NOW, WE ARE ALL TRYING TO EAT BETTER, WALK, AND RESIST THE TEMPTATION TO FALL BACK INTO THE FAT TRAP!!!
THANK YOU, LINDSEY, FOR CREATING THIS GREAT SITE!!!
