I can also understand that you were not ready to tell. At first, I had my phase of stupor and denial, and I would ask myself questions like, how is it possible if I have never been overweight, or I don't eat so badly that I am diabetic and things like that. But once we assume the condition, I think we take the first step to fight the battle.
I lost weight with the first medication I took, dapagliflozin. I am a lot thinner but at some point, I have stayed at the same weight.
I hope neither of us gets to the point of needing insulin. And you know we're here for you. We'll keep in touch here.
Happy afternoon!
