A COMMENT FROM SHANE

Okay, I need to vent and get this out there! First everyone who has been diagnosed, should seek as much education about diabetes as possible! You need to control your disease, not the other way around!!!! Yes, when I was first diagnosed, my numbers were just over 300, and in 2 weeks, I had them under 100! Yes I felt very weak, and all around felt like crap! I had allowed my body to get use to seeking out carbs and sugar rather than the protein like it should! Its each individ...uals choice on if they're going to do what it takes to conquer their affliction! Yes, I too see everyone else eating and drinking whatever they want! But MY LIFE, and MY HEALTH are more important! I see posts on here where it seems people are bragging, "how high have your numbers gone" or "How low have you gone" this isnt a joke! Diabetes isnt a joke! And a support group is NOT the place to come for ANY medical advise! On another note, for those who have friend requested more, or messaged me asking questions, I love getting to know new people, and will help in any way I can. But if you ask me a question, dont get upset if I give you a truthful answer! For me, diabetes was a blessing in disguise! I was diagnosed last March, Ive lost 35 pounds, Im eating so much cleaner, as well as appropriate portions. My over all health is much better, and it was a kick in the butt to start exercising! This is a support group! I have no problem supporting anyone who will try to support themselves! Anyways, done venting!    Shane is a member of the type 2 diabetes support group
