As some of you know my Dad is T2 himself and he has really been listening to me and cutting out sugar and most carbs from his life, he just had his HBA1C done just now and holy moly! From 76 down to 50! I know it's basically still pre-diabetic levels but I can't help but be happy with him after 10+ years of being diabetic that's impressive to me.

He's aiming for below 40 now which is amazing, makes me feel so fuzzy inside that I've been an example for the man I have looked up to for most of my life.

Caeseji - Be proud to be proud. You're inspiring your family to be healthier, and everyone deserved their health to be as good as they can manage.

Good luck to Dad for a few months.

Thanks so much everyone, that means a lot to me and the fact I managed to bring a tear to @britishpub brought one to mine too!

I'm hoping that we can get it down further, seems like he's receptive to it right now so fingers crossed it keeps on going.

Blimey, Caeseji - How your appearance has changed ince you arrived here, and how much more comfortably and confidently you seem to engage with the camera lense.

You look fantastic!

(I appreciate this thread is about your Dad, but I'll give myself a stern telling off. It's worth it. :) )

Haha! Thank you! I decided to get my hair done when I was on the way out of the office yesterday so of course I had to post it here as well.

Thanks again to everyone that commented, it's nice to be able to spread some hope around to even my own family.
