Carb Counting, a positive story.

[D4rren2016]

Just a quick one really. A year or so ago I started carb counting as my diabetes control was all over the place. Was a massive struggle at the beginning to get my head around it (I did make a few posts on here as I was struggling). Anyway i persevered with it and the struggles I had ( looking on this forum helped me an awful lot so thank you all). I'm just here to say it was all worth it as I've got my HBAC1 down from a 77, to 42 after 6 months and my latest reading today was at 41 and I've never felt better!

Its been a tough journey and not always plain sailing, but there is only yourself that can make it better, and off course this forum helps too.

Totally worth it! Blood sugars never do exactly what you want them to and even with the most accurate carb counting, you can get unpredictable numbers, but it certainly helps if you do put in the effort to count them anyway. Keep it up!

This forum has helped me out immensely and I think it shows the power online forums and the sharing of experiences has on people. So I think the credit has to go to all the contributors to this forum and sharing their experiences.
