Jill Knapp’s life changed when she was diagnosed three years ago with Type II diabetes, also familiarly known as adult onset diabetes. She has not only lost over 100 pounds, she has gone on to become an advocate for the American Diabetes Association and is a passionate public speaker sharing her story with and inspiring others. On Friday we will talk to Jill, who blogs at Get Up & Get Moving all about how she was able to lose 100 pounds and control her diabetes without any artificial medical means. If you or someone you know struggles with weight and/or diabetes you will not want to miss our motivating show with Jill!

This is a wonderful story. I visited her blog and if everyone would actually do what she did our country would be a much healthier.
I will be listening into her today and am excited to see someone with type 2 diabetes have such success.
