Message: <blockquote data-quote="JoKalsbeek" data-source="post: 2748296" data-attributes="member: 401801">I was 42 at my last test, which had me thoroughly miffed... Usually aiming for 40 and under. My new GP was pleased as punch though, said how well I was doing, and was surprised I wasn't half as "impressed" as she was. She actually started explaining diabetes to me...! I've been a halfway professional type 2 for years, haha. I just have to be up a little smidge to get problems with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, so yeah. That means that 42, for me, is not acceptable. I've made some changes since, and things have improved with my liver, but... All in all, you decide what you're content with. I aim for non-diabetic numbers, because even prediabetic ones can cause me issues in other areas. Figure out what is doable for you, what your goals are, what you're willing to do or not do for non-diabetic or prediabetic numbers, and whether it's something you want to begin with.Their benchmark doesn't have to be yours, is what I'm saying. Mainly because everyone's different.</blockquote>
