I come from a very active and ambitious family. I have 2 very successful parents, and 4 successful siblings. I am not the only one that is overweight, but I think I am the only one that can't keep living like this. All 3 sisters and I grew up with type 1 diabetes, and I think that I am the only one that has never really been able to handle it well. My brother never got diabetes. I grew up playing sports all through middle school, high school, and college. I love tennis, and played that all through college. I also played softball and basketball and volleyball back in the days. But my weight never stopped. I always kept on gaining. When I graduated from HS and went off to college, I was in a horrible relationship, that ended up creating a lot of my mental depression and feelings of worthlisness. Ever since then, I have steadily climbed in weight. I had a period of weight loss with WW, but it did not stay. Having the diabetes makes it very difficult to lose weight without creating low blood sugars. But I am tired of letting blood sugars, food, and my emotions run my show. I want to keep living, cause I have a lot of years left!!!
