Just got my HBA1C result back....In June my HBA1C was 53 i am diet only trying hard to go low carb. I asked to have a re test HBA1C in September that came back at 48. I know i have tried hard, i know i have slipped up on
the odd occasion i need to take more exercise and keep tweaking the diet, I would really like to see a 40 or even a 39....or even a hint of praise for the effort made i just got No Further Action. Took me right back to school days
and my struggle with numbers.

Well its going in the right direction.. maybe not as fast as you would like but in 3 months you have done what your HCP's probably think is impossible and lowered your HbA1c.. so here's a big well done from me.
Keep on doing the same thing.. maybe cut carbs back a bit more and that 39-40 is only 9 points away...

The smell of cigars
it’s amazing how bad medics can make us feel.
You have worked hard and got a great result. Don’t let them make you feel bad.
