There is a lot of reasons for diabetes, and not just over weight, though being overweight does not help one bit. 

Common warnings signs of diabetes include:

  • Increased thirst.
  • Increased hunger (especially after eating)
  • Dry mouth.
  • Frequent urination or urine infections.
  • Unexplained weight loss (even though you are eating and feel hungry)
  • Fatigue (weak, tired feeling)
  • Blurred vision.
  • Headaches.
I have always been careful of my diet, avoiding a lot of sugary intake. My old man who drank sweet stout, lots of beer, and fizzy soft sugary drinks every day in the hot sun of Australia, had first signs of this by 50, and by 60 had lost a leg through it (bad circulation), got bad eyesight, and eventually at 70 lost part of the other foot, and looked like being at deaths door, just before he died at 71.  It honestly is pure hell for those going through life with it and also for those relatives left to care for the unfortunate. 

I would not wish it on anyone, and I would advise all to watch out for first symptoms of it and go see your doctor for advice and diet, to get back on the road to recovery, if possible, before its too late.
