No because I ate as much and whatever I wanted. I did damage to my body out of ignorance. I am a much more informed person and I listen to my body. It tells me when I'm off track and headed for disaster. I am now 36 lbs lighter, no pain in my feet and vision back to normal.

Yes I'm the same person befor I got diabetes because I won't let it get me down.i live life day by day you now what u can eat so I think enjoy yourself.life better than worrying about what u can do and eat.exercise ,biking,walking that helps me.

I'm still the same person I was before, diabetes doesn't define who I am just changed my life style and voila its still me lol

Am the same person really just have to give myself a reality check once in awhile

I am eating healthier now, have lost quite a bit of weight, but I do miss eating with abandon- eating a bowl of pasta w bread and not worrying how many carbs, serving portions, etc.
