[QUOTE="Daley01, post: 2278795, member: 526556"] Hi paulyw74. I just signed up on here and was reading your posts and thought I would just say keep it up your doing really well. I am recently diagnosed in February with type 2. Think my hba1c was in the high 80s to start with. I cut out the fizzy pop which i did have to much of. And dont have sugar in my tea now etc. And I've found that like most other people reducing my cards is helping. For me it was wanting to educate myself about food im eating. Il be honest I've probably been ignorant to it over the years and the diagnosis was a big wake up call. I am a truck driver by trade but currently trying to get my licence back as was suspended at the start of my diagnosis. I did start on insulin and meformin but I can now say I'm off the insulin completely and on a slow release metformin and a empaglaflozin tablet. These are keeping me on track as well as trying hard with the diet and exercise. I just recently had an update from the diabetic nurse to say that my hba1c has dropped down to 49 which is just outside the pre diabetic range and the nurse couldn't be happier for me. So im pleased with that i just wanna say keep up your good work and im sure you will get there. My goal is to try to kick this in to remission whether its possible or not I will keep trying. Good luck and stay safe. [/QUOTE]
