[QUOTE="Goonergal, post: 2010100, member: 368709"] Hi [USER=497641]@Starfish18[/USER] Firstly an apology. I’m on my phone and haven’t read all responses but saw your post earlier and wanted to respond. Sounds like you are doing well but wanted to say a few things from the point of view of someone who also started with a high HbA1c but has managed to stay off meds. 1) Don’t compare yourself to others. Definitely listen and find those on similar journeys and learn from them but really get to know your own patterns and be guided by those. 2) Be consistent - personally I have found IF and keeping carbs as low as possible to be very powerful. 3) Focus on pre and post eating readings rather than fasting levels in the morning. The latter are the last to come down and don’t tell you too much. 4) Track your progress so you can check back and see the general trends. At first things will likely be erratic but the overall direction can help to keep you motivated and help you identify trends. Hope some of that helps. [/QUOTE]
