I feel as if I did end up with the short straw in terms of genetics. Both my parents are diabetic, and while they are fat (27 and 29 BMI the last time I tried helping them lose weight), I also have family members who are normal weight or underweight who have type 2. My 23 year old cousin is underweight and has type 2. I'm Southeast Asian and it tends to run in our gene pool. And thanks for the help. I haven't been exercising regularly since I moved to college, but I will definitely start working out and building muscle if it ends up helping me reverse the conditions.
