I celebrated reaching my first goal this evening, (had a Jersey Royal with my tea courtesy of my daughter) I can now say I weigh less than 10st (just). I haven't been less than 11st for a few years and I'm well chuffed! Started on my new lifestyle of LCHF eating and aerobic exercise when I was diagnosed T2 in March, and it's working, just the way everyone said it would. HbA1c results next week, the level was 88 at diagnosis, so I'm hoping for a lower result this time. Fingers crossed everyone, please.

The hassle and ignorance of diabetes.

Well done.

Don't be disheartened if your levels haven't reduced in the way you want/hope - it all takes time, especially if you want to maintain the changes for life. ;)

Fantastic - well done. I was diagnosed with T2 in May this year - Blood sugar was 8.8, having tablets to help but also eating properly for the first time in over 40 years and exercising 4 times a week!
I'm gonna beat it.!
