First ever Hab whatever test result...

[yipster29]

As a newbie type 1, diagnosed 4 months ago with BG of 31.8 who read everything (once I could see again... 8) ) and has chosen the Low Carb route I had my 1st ever Hab1c or whatever it's called result and it's 6.2 !!!

Whilst I accept I've a way to go before the 5% sofa finds me a seat I'm soooooooooo chuffed and DN was so impressed she even accepted my low carb methods... don't think she could do any other!! She did ask if I had the energy doing that for all the exercise I'm doing and I quoted good old Fergus on fats etc and pointed out I feel better than pre-diabetes days and have lost over stone and a half (that was all I really needed to lose, was overweight but not hugely)

Drink or 2 or red tonight me thinks!

I was going to say that one of these days I''ll join you - but by that time you'll be 'on a different sofa'!

Keep up the good work.
