      I've been diabetic since 1974, and am disabled after breaking my back nine years ago. I struggle with trying to remain positive. Sunshine, moderate exercise (walk 4x/week), and eating right help me feel better and have a more positive attitude.

        @LaurenRomero oh okay, yeah I am working on my diet, but it's challenging. Even after eating fruits and vegetables, I still feel hungry. How long have you had it?
