Shame and guilt are so often heaped on us as diabetics, especially Type 2 diabetics. My best advice is to reject the blame game. Dealing with diabetes is hard enough without the added burden of a guilt trip being placed upon us. There is plenty of good advice to be had on diet and exercise which is extremely important but its also important to like your self in the process.
