Had bloodtest last Friday. HbA1c results down again.


On diagnosis in August: 56 or 7.3
In Dec: 47 or 6.5
In March: 31 or 5

Weight has decreased by 2st 11lbs since August
Bmi from 34.3 to 27.6
Not sure about my waist - judging by belt 2 to 4 ins
Gone from size 18 trousers to size 14. (Expensive business this dieting)

Good incentive to keep at it.!
 
Congratulations @yolageen, these are terrific results. Your hard work has paid off big time, you must feel like you've conquered the world! WELL DONE YOU
 
Very well done.
I had to get new trousers,charity shops have loads.
 
That is a brilliant result. The next challenge is to find a maintenance system for diet and exercise.
 
Hi @yolageen

That is a sensational result and you should be very proud of what you have achieved.

Congratulations
 
@yolageen - very well done indeed on your excellent results and weight loss, but everything comes at a price, and ours can be the cost of new smaller clothes!

Do what I did and buy some pairs of braces. Trousers last a lot longer like that.

Or ladies can buy trousers with elasticated or drawstring waists... I even ended up adding drawstring to some of my eventually too big elasticated waists to extend useful life, but in the end the overall bagginess was tending to trip me up so while my diabetes wasn't killing me I was in line for a broken neck from falling downstairs. I'm retired so have the luxury of no longer necessarily having to worry about appearance... but I certainly have enjoyed having some nice new clothes as well.
