Voices of Diabetes

I am a type 2 diabetic. I have only been diagnosed 4 months ago, so I am new to this. 

I met with a diabetes educator and was given the amount of carbs I should have per meal and per snack. I take a blood glucose (sugar) reading every day and log it. I have made myself spend at least 30 minutes a day walking or using an exercise machine. I am on pills, not insulin. I was told if I stick with this, I could go years without insulin. Hopefully, by then there will be a cure.
