Beloved Southern Bell Paula Deen Comes out about being Diabetic.

Many of us have come to know and love Food Networks Paula Deen, but many of us didn’t know that she had a small secret, she is Diabetic.

It was on a routine doctor’s visit for a physical exam, as she does every six months, but that day she left knowing that she was now a Type 2 Diabetic.

Paula said that she waited almost 3 years to tell anyone because she needed to be in a better place in her life and be ‘better armed’ for when people asked her about her condition. Paula Deen has suffered from acute Agoraphobia for years, and has worked hard at coming out of her shell, and did not want a media storm surrounding her announcement.
As for her savory buttery dishes, she makes no plans on changing them, just the amounts she eats taking into consideration her insulin dependency.

Today Paula Deen turns 65, Happy Birthday !!
