[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2380211, member: 41816"] My Libres always return unrealistically low guesstimates for my HbA1cs. I do not consider the Libre useful for predicting HbA1cs, since my Libres always read between 1 and 1.5mmol/l lower than prick tests, so the discrepancy is easy to explain. Cholesterol often rises with weight loss (the subcutaneous fat is released from the stores and transported via the blood as cargo on the things that are measured in a cholesterol test. So you will likely have a lot more of them during weight loss. Give it time (months) after the weight loss if over, for your true Chol levels to be revealed.
