I was 185 pounds when diagnosed, currently 130, at 5 ft tall. My Dr insisted I gain some pounds back, as you to keep sickness down. I'm like you, go figure😁

I was diagnosed in November of 2021. Type 2. I was 7.1 at diagnosis now I’m 5.7 no meds just diet and exercise.

@A DiabetesTeam Member I too was 185 lbs when I was diagnosed. I’m 5’ 6 3/4 . I dropped 45 pounds and fluctuate between 140 and 145. Generally in the middle of those two numbers. My husband hates me being this thin but knows I need to do it for my health.

Diabetes runs in my family, and I am over 50% Cheyenne Indian, another genetic factor. I watched both of my grandparents with diabetes, but I was clueless that it could happen to me. I'm the eldest of 5 children and my siblings doesn't have it as of now, nor my sons, I pray they don't get it. I try to advise them all to eat right and lose weight if needed. Thank you for the info Patricia, much love and hugs.
