1st HbA1c test results are in following diagnosis end of August this year where the result was 84 mmol/mol.......
Now at 51 mmol/mol.
I think I have had a good crack at getting my sugars back on track, now I just need to get my lardy ass down the gym more and shed some weight, I have lost a little (4 kgs) but need to do a fair bit more. Result is mostly down to small diet changes/food swaps & the Metformin I guess.
Big push for weight loss over the next 3 months then I would like to look at binning the Metformin off if the HbA1C has improved further and the Doc/dietician thinks I can do it with my diet alone.
I still wish I had done something about my weight/diet over the past few years so I wouldn't have landed myself with diabetes in the first place but we are all geniuses with hindsight & I need to make the best of the here & now!
