>>Being a black female who is overweight automatically puts you in a diabetic category,<<

Yes.

They call that a “diagnostic” based on “medical science.”

ALL obese people are diagnosed as pre-diabetic and rightly so. It may be that blacks also tend towards diabetes. The combination is an almost certainty.

Yeah, because no white guy ever has had family pressure to eat too much. But the bottom line - the Big Bottom line - is that excuses won't heal you. This white male doesn't enjoy dieting, especially during holidays - but I do it. Or else. Welcome to something called "LIFE"!
