[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2047502, member: 480869"] Type 2 has until recently, and sadly still by too many, seen as a progressive disease with most ending up on insulin eventually. Ie exactly what you read. However that assumes little in the way of active management and reliance instead purely on medication whilst still stuffing all the carbs in the world. It’s being shown in here all the time we can halt the progression and even turn it back to normal numbers for a lot of people. No one can predict what will happen to any individual in the future but if you achieve your goals, maintain a good (for type 2) diet and be as active as you are able to be you give yourself the very best chance of keeping things under control. One way of looking at is by being diagnosed young you have more years to treat yourself well and fewer years of damage already done than those of us somewhat older. [/QUOTE]
