Went wrecking yard digging today.

My wife was diagnosed a diabetic at 49 and then lost about 80 lbs. and watched her diet and sugars.
Then after 10 years she was not considered diabetic anymore.
Monthly blood tests backed this up.
For the last 5 years she has come through with a clean bill of health by still watching her diet and keeping her weight down.
So, type 2 diabetes can be reversed in some people if you get on it right away.
