Hi all, just got back from doctors and feeling quite happy with myself because i feel all the hard work i have put in has been worth it.

Fasting BG 5.8

Hba1c 5.4

kidney and liver function all good and and total cholesterol 5.2 , i am going to reward myself with fish and chips with lots of white bread, for dessert i am having bread and butter pudding made with brioche and loads of vanilla custard, drinks will be 4 pints of Guinness and maybe a nice dessert wine, and maybe a big slab of fruit and nut chocolate,

OR

Maybe i will have roast chicken, cauliflower mash and spring greens with a nice low fat jelly and a couple of squares of 85% cocoa dark chocolate.

Congratulations and very well done. You have reaped the rewards of all your hard work. I think you deserve a treat.
 
Thanks Bluetit i feel like having a reward but then i think the results were reward enough and to be honest if it wasn't for sites like this i would never have done it because i did not have a clue about my condition and what i could do to help control it so a big thanks to everyone who contributes on this forum

Very satisfying results indeed. Congrats on your hard work getting there. :)
 
Thanks karbstruck a fair bit of hard work and lots of discipline but really worth it

Great result and reward

Btw I had bread and butter pudding last week as a treat, not had it for years, and wife only put 1 teaspoon of sugar in, it was bloody lovely but I paid the price, my morning level was 12.9 definitely go for the second option :)
