due to chronic reduction or absence of insulin (Iqbal, 1996). That central

blood sugar levels of people with diabetes mellitus (Waspadji, 2004). BMI is
one way to determine the nutritional status is used to determine whether a
person is obese or not. BMI has nothing to do with blood sugar levels with DM
(Hartono, 2006). The general objective of this study was to determine the
relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) with blood sugar levels of type 2
diabetic patients. This type of research is the explanation of research in the
field of clinical nutrition. The method used is survey method with cross
sectional approach. The study population was all patients with type 2 diabetes
mellitus in the hospital outpatient clinic of Internal Medicine Tugurejo
