I'm 18 years old...I'm 6'3 195 pounds. I eat atrociously----burgers, hot dogs, lots of bready kind of stuff, everything is covered in cheese....sometimes sweet stuff like soda, candy...etc. etc. I appear very lanky and thin even though I eat really bad food---and and I eat a large quanity of it. My stomach is out of proportion from the rest of my body in terms of fat being stationed there, although unless I took my shirt off no one would be able to tell that I wasn't a skeleton----it's not big big, but it's not flat if you know what I mean (a decent amount of pudge). After I eat terrible foods lately I keep getting sharp feelings in my feet...also a few months ago my eyes would twitch after eating bad foods for a period of a few weeks. I have heard that type 2 diabetes (which if I have diabetes is what I most likely have---90 percent of diabetics are type 2 while type 1 accounts for only 10 percent) usually sets in during middle age---at my age could i already have diabetes???
