what barko said!

Tho I don't believe it has anything to do with your weight, or your eating habits (that's a media fueled "crock" in my book) but your family history, is more likely the cause! As well as, at your age especially, you could very well be T1. That's a generalization I know, but it is a possibility, in that case, you REALLY need to get to the doc ASAP!!!
