Hey, I'm new here, just joined today. I was diagnosed as being borderline diabetic last yr. I started on a low carb diet, and it worked for a while, I lost 20 pounds and then quit losing weight, i'd lost all i could without exercise, so I joined a gym, walked on a treadmill for 20 mins each day and then lifted weights for a while, that went on for a month and I wasn't losing any weight, so I've been discouraged by that and quit eating right ever since.

Since January I've been with Chad, he hates vegetables and only eats fattening foods. I'm terribly worried about when we get married, which is next August.

I've recently started back at a gym and hoping to lose more weight. I'm on Actos, and I want to get off of it, but I'd have to get down to like 135 pounds, and that's a far ways off from what I am now. I guess I just need encouragement.
