I could have spent three months eating nothing but cookies and pizza and scored 30.
Eurghhhh.
Though maybe you'd have scored 42 (i.e. within non-diabetic range).

One more question to clarify - Less HBA1C = more insulin sensitivity and hypo awarness ?
Well, possibly more insulin sensitivity but no to the better hypo awareness. The main disadvantage of low bgs is that you can lose hypo awareness (obviously not the case for the posters on here who are achieving such awesome HbA1Cs ). My last HbA1C was 6.9 and my diabetic consultant told me that she's take my driving license away if I didn't raise my blood sugars (I passed out in a shopping centre when I undermedicated a hypo and also had a bad night time hypo). I also lost hypo awareness when I had "normal" bgs during pregnancy, so I do sort of accept that I've got to keep my HbA1C above 7 (but not too much above). I've deliberately raised my blood sugars a bit and had just one hypo is the last month (woke at night with 3.3). Not sure what this will do to my HbA1C but am hoping to keep in the low 7s....Less HBA1C = more insulin sensitivity and hypo awarness ?
Thanks for the info =) going through my honeymoon phase at the min which is great I suppose. Going from 25ish to 11 BG I feel great.@paulchew1988, I’m type one and my last hba1c was also 131 mmol/mol (how strangle lol) and I’m pretty sure I was told it was 14.1 % and equal to 19.8 mmol as an average blood sugar
