[QUOTE="Dougie22, post: 1035583, member: 34509"] If the blood test is for HbA1c, that will give you a really solid starting baseline that you can use as an excellent measure of long term improvement. Depending on the reading, ask them when they expect to do the next one. This gives you a longer term target to aim at. In my case, my December reading was 65 and my doctor has given me a target of getting below 58 by the end of March or increasing the medications I'm on. I truly intend to get below 58 and that is, for the moment, my principle motivation. You've made the best start you can by getting back to sensible eating habits. Well done. [/QUOTE]
