Hardly a success story - it's exactly the same as my last test a year ago: 33 mmol/mol. I suppose it just goes to show that, for me, losing a lot of weight has helped keep me in remission, despite eating more carbs.

I’d say it’s a success story. You are still in the non diabetic range and it hasn’t gone up!
As you know I’m in a similar situation, having lost a shed load of weight, although I still take one low dose medication. I eat a few more carbs on high days and holidays but remain low carb otherwise.
Very well done!

I strongly disagree, staying in remission (especially with an HbA1C as low as 33) is a great achievement - I wish it wasn't, because that would mean most people could do it - unfortunately that's not the case.

Thanks, @ianf0ster. I hope it stays around that level.
As an aside, LibreLink estimated my A1C as 31, so not too far off.

I’m a similar distance from a weight that would see my BMI in the ‘healthy range’. However I prefer this Smart BMI, it takes way more into consideration than simply weight and height. This puts me firmly in the green zone, so I”m not stressing about losing now, if it happens great, if not so be it.
