Has anyone here sent their diabetes packing? If so...what would you recommend? I realize that you are not doctors...but I trust people that have actually had this thing more then doctors that are merely prescription pad jockeys.

Thanks! V
BuckeyeNuts ~ I agree! Both my parents had diabetes and I have a family history of Parkinsons, Alzheimers and low-IQ. I was never diagnosed with pre-diabetes but I WAS prescribed cholesterol-lowering meds for my high number. Well, being anti-drug totally ~ I chose to alter my eating lifestyle and went from a high chol of approx. 265 to 174 in six months just by changing the way I eat and minimal exercises.

Now, I don't take any prescription meds. If I can do it, anyone can. I say "ya gotta wanna". It does take sacrifice and most don't want to do that so they will take the meds
