My quest to control Type-2 Diabetes Since being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes in early 2009, I wanted to get a handle on the situation. I was actually surprised since no one on my side of the family has it. So, I got lots of education through web research and my local hospital's dietician/nutritionist. I am currently on a low dose of Metformin, which seems to be working. Started tracking all food & daily Glucose levels on May 3, 2009. Began using EA Sports Active program for the Wii on May 21, 2009 (an excellent program for the price). I feel better and stronger every day, and am determined to control my Diabetes. I lost about 10 lbs. in 5 months on my own (1/2 lb/week), and couldn't seem to lose any more (even doing 35-40 min of exercise daily). Then, I decided to try the NutriSystem-D program in October '09 to help bring my weight down even further. I have around 30 lbs to go. Wish me luck everyone!
