A B replied to Mike_K's discussion 'Metformin - can you wean yourself of it.'"great job in getting your A1C down to 5.7 Mike. I was in a similiar situation. Dr had me on metformin for approx 6 months. I really didnt want to take it but we made a deal that if I was able to get my a1c down into the 5's and keep it there I…"
A B posted a status"transitioning out of the job I've had for the past 12 years. Potentially moving out of state. Family drama. I'd say that's pleny of stress!"
A B replied to svaughan's discussion 'BS Numbers'"fantastic thread. I really agree with the stance that the ADA sets the bar far too low. I too am a personal testament to the low carb - sub 140 post prandial test results. I understand where JIMS is coming from, having to take account for additional…"
A B posted a status"I sent out a handful of friend requests to really try and get involved in this forum and I got zero replies. Not feeling the love."
A B commented on David K's group 'A1C Below 6.0 On Diet and Exercise ONLY'"I figured that since this group applies to me, I should join. Most recent blood work came back with an A1C of 5.2. I've been hovering in the 5.2 to 5.6 range for the past 3+ years all on diet and exercise. Low carb diet, high intensity exercise…"
A B joined David K's group
A1C Below 6.0 On Diet and Exercise ONLY
People with Type 2 Diabetes who can offer insight of how to control diabetes with Diet and Exercise alone and maintain a 6.0 or less A1C. Extremely difficult to do over a period of time.
A B commented on Andy's group 'Diabetics who run Marathons!'"Hello all. Neat group. Must confess, I am yet to run my first marathon, but I am training for my first half that takes place in a month, Las Vegas. Anyway, I figured that if this was the spot to get some good advice. Look forward to participating!"

So, I was just doing a search for a D related issue and the search results came up with something from here. I had never heard of tudiabetes before. I must admit, the functionality is impressive and the membership active and supportive. After lurking for less than a day, I decided to join.
Anyway, about me; I've been a D2 for 3.5 years and I have been medication free for the last 3. Just diet and exercise.
Anyway, I guess I'm interested in getting involved in a local support…
