i was diagnosed in august 2016 my HbA1c was 92 , i have gone down the route of moderate carbs ,more exercise mainly walking, i have had blood tests every 6 months and the last few have been in the low 40's and so in to remission but today for the first time i gone below 40 and scored 39.
i do blood tests and there are usual 6.5 to 7.5 mmol , i do get an occasional morning blip of 8 to 8.5 mmol .
over the this time period my weight has come down by 2 stone
i think it is a personal journey and working out what works for you, i cant say i dont eat certain food groups because i do but on average i try moderation with the odd i am having that bounty bar moment.
i have to say i would be lost without this forum and everyone wisdom so freely shared, i find it more helpful and informative than any health professional.
