Basically your body just doesn't work correctly. This is one reason why we are seeing Type 2 in children, now and not before. I suspect it is because we were never tested as children. So when your body doesn't process carbs correctly, you get over weight. So the diabetes causes the overweight, not the other around. Now in this day and age, you may be able to adjust your eating and not become overweight. But, in my case being 50, I was brought up to drink 4 glasses of milk, bread etc. to be healthy, instead I was just overweight. This was based also on a study done by John Hopkins with some German researchers. Therefore, we can all stop blaming ourselves.

This is why I think the stem cell research may cure the disease. I have never eaten as much as my skinny friends. It is just sickening.

But as for being BORN DIABETIC? I'd LOVE to know where he got THAT info! BORN with a tendency - yeah, I can buy that. But it is NOT predestined. I have two younger sisters with the exact same genetic history, and NEITHER of them is diabetic, though both have to struggle to keep their weight down. ALL of us are in our 50's. My doctor says that it is genetic and I am overweight because I was born diabetic, not the other way around. New research in Germany supports this. It is not normal to have to starve yourself to be a normal weight. Phyllis TRUE about the TENDENCY towards being overweight…I come from a bunch of
