Troy Boyd's Bio

As a Type 1 diabetic now for 14 years I know the ups and downs that accompany the disease.

At 17, being diagnosed seemed like a death sentence of sorts. No more eating my favorite foods, no more having fun and partying it up with my friends like a 17 year old is supposed to do. Though it ended up not being as dramatic as I thought it would be, it has been a bit of a bumpy road at times.

But, I'm still alive, I'm still having fun, and well, I'm still a diabetic. Some things never change I guess. I've learned alot about dealing with this disease and still learn more every single day. I want to share and pass on that information to others who either have the disease, might be afraid that they have it and are afraid to find out, or just know someone else who is dealing with it.

Hopefully we can all have some fun learning more about it and dealing with it in a positive light.

As for my personal life, I'm happily married to my beautiful wife Tina, and love spending as much time as possible with my two little ones, my son Cooper who is six, and daughter Dakota who is four.

I've worked from home for a few years now and love it. As I have more and more experience with diabetes and as I study and learn more daily I love nothing more than sharing it with you. You can find out more about that at:

Diabetes Blood Sugar Control..

and also a sight that alot of women will appreciate due to unsightly celluliteLose Your Cellulite.

Thank you for reading and come back often and visit.

Please leave comments to let me know how I'm doing and let me know what you think.

Sincerely, Troy Boyd
