[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 254161"] Hi Phil, first of all 7.2 is not terrible for an HBA1C - it's where I am at the moment though I'm trying to push it lower. The weight loss sounds great, you've done well to pull back that much. Do you think you've got more to go? Depends whether you're 6'4" or 5'3" really. Looking at the food you list, have you done a total carb count for the day? I also eat porridge in the mornings - though the carbs are pretty high. I can't eat hardly any fruit though - so what does the fruit at 11am consist of? Does the 'proper cooked meal' contain any spuds, rice or pasta? It may be that you're particularly susceptible to one or all of these and this is pushing your numbers. If you have a testing kit, then test before and then at +2hrs after a typical meal and you'll get a better idea of why the numbers are higher than you want. [/QUOTE]
