@Amandlaz - a 4.7 fasting blood glucose, and going down to 4.4 after food does sound very healthy to me! And once you start getting your post diet-change HBA1cs you will probably start feeling a lot more positive about these changes you've been making, and getting your blood glucose down to normal.
To get it in perspective, take a look at the '50 shades of diabetes' graph - those colour codes are very helpful! The bottom figure in the table - mmol/L - is the average BG reading that gives that HBA1c - if I have understood it correctly. So, say, you have been averaging 5.7 - your next HBA1c will be 33 (or 5.2%), and way in the green healthy zone. You can find out your average BG reading over the last week or month on your BG meter easily.
