Personally, this year's ADA got off to a great start for me too. One of the best reasons to come to these conventions -- aside from the great presentations -- is to see old friends. The first person who recognized me here hadn't seen me since last year's ADA in Chicago.

"You're too thin," was the greeting from Steve Freed, the publisher of Diabetes in Control. I've lost 35 pounds in the past year, but my BMI is still in the normal range. Of course, Steve's comment is the nicest thing that anyone could say to someone like me who has type 2 diabetes.
