found it via google images.
also, I am 6'0 and weigh 168 pounds

My grandma had type 2 and she was massively fat. Ended up getting half of her leg amputated, then dying. Turns out that side of my family has a pre-disposition to developing type 2 diabetes, but as long as I don't become a fatso, I'm all good.

Everyone with type 1 that I've known was pretty thin though

I know man. My wife's son is type one and it seems like a constant battle with getting his sugar level. It spikes around bedtime as well even when he hasn't eaten in several hours.

See, diabetes of both types run in my family.
My mother and brother are both not diabetic, but their glucose has been low as fuck for their entire lives. So much so that when my mother's friend who is a Type 2 went and checked her glucose, she nearly flipped shit because it was something ridiculous like 62 or something.

I was diagnosed about 2 years ago after I began losing a shit ton of weight in the course of a week and feeling fucking terrible, and then one night started throwing up profusely all over the place, and my family called an ambulance and I was committed for the night with bad ketoacidosis.

I was about 5'11 at 160 pounds, and in just a week, I had gone down to 141 pounds. Fucking awful. And I had the most horrible thirst ever.

Since then I've come to accept my condition and I've even been able to eat semi-normally again but there's still this extra shit during the day that I fucking hate. Poking myself ain't a big deal anymore. And neither is the lows. I can sleep now too without being afraid of dying in my sleep, finally. It took a year for that shit to finally run its course.
