Introduction

I decided to start this blog as a form of therapy for me once I embraced my status.  I have been a Type 2 diabetic since November 2010 but I have just really accepted it here in May 2012.  I know that's a long time, but this has been a big challenge for me.  You see, I'm only 34 years old, divorced mother of 2 and feel like I'm still in my prime, but finding out about this disease, has really taken a toll on my personality and who I am in general.  But through prayer and determination, I have a newfound acceptance and I'm on a mission to beat this and to get healthy!  So far, I have been taking my meds when I'm supposed to and have even lost 6 lbs and about 6 inches off of my body.  I'm excited about it!
