I'm full aware that i'm a healthy weight and i don't think there is anything wrong with my body (besides my pancreas lol) so this isn't a "oh i'm fat so i need to loss weight" thing. I just think that i never really exercise regularly like i probably should to be healthier over all and to help control diabetes a little bit more.
