Get your minds out of the gutter, ladies. I have started loosing weitht, BUT it is so hard not to snack on the wrong things. We took everything wrong out of the house and replaced them with healthy food to eat, but I still eat too much.

Bill & I are walking almost every night, grocery shopping lasts twice as long with us both looking at lables. Sept 6 we both go to a class on diabetes and I guess I'm on my way to a different way of life. I think the hardest thing to do will be wearing shoes all the time. I hate shoes and even garden bare-foot. Oh supporters, please help me be strong. Love and BIG HUGS. ..Free

Hi Charlie, good to "see" you. Yes, the drs say to wear shoes all the time, especially outside because you can get a cut or punture and it can take a long time to heal. This is just one of the drawbacks of diabetes, you heal slowly. My bil had oral surgery a couple of months ago and he is still healing. He has also been a big help to me for he also has Type II diabetes and thats who I work for 2 days a week. So we talk a lot. He's on meds for his, maybe I won't have to go on any. Love and BIG HUGS. ..Free
