Which is why exercise is important, however that also needs to be counter balanced by the fact that diabetes is a debilitating condition, that regularly can leave those with it feeling very tired and worn out.
Easy to judge and mock, a lot harder to control and effectively deal with depending on the severity of it.
Good diet and exercise are important, again however many of those with diabetes often have other health issues too,which make controlling it even more difficult.

You are right Joey
I know a couple of people who have diabetes, one is ok the other is overweight, not massive but weighty, he walks his dog twice a day, goes to the gym twice a week, his weight wont shift. He tries very hard to eat healthy & keep fit.
Will they run a check list on why they are fat before they shame them
