Very, very well done Daks. What's the treat to be then?Hey folks,
So it's been 3 months since I walked in the door with a raging BG HbA1c of 101mmol/mol, feeling weak, depressed, upset and at that point had resined myself to a future of ill health, complications and a shortened life expectancy of 10 years, all based on information presented by the NHS.
Only 3 Months later my HbA1c has just come in at 41mmol/mol I have dropped a little over 3 stones in weight, attend gym 4 days a week and have accepted that my health and life expectancy is now likely going to be many years more than had I not been diagnosed with diabetes.
This is testament to good information, community support , fact based data and a great bunch of people that prompted a lifestyle change.
Thank you all so much.
