[QUOTE="SockFiddler, post: 1702810, member: 412001"] There is no shame in taking meds for a while to help you get that control sooner. It's neither defeat nor surrender, just using what resources exist to make your journey easier. It also gives you a little more time (and takes the pressure off you) to look around, thinking about things and experiment with various approaches to see what not only works for you but what you'll be comfortable with. Being diet-controlled is certainly within grasp, but be careful of cutting off your nose to spite your face: diabetes is a marathon, not a sprint, and anything that gets you off to a good start should be carefully considered before being discarded. You have the power to choose and experiment - and a community of folks here all willing to help you stay on the right track. You've got this. Take a breath - you're going to be fine :) [/QUOTE]
