Re: Success stories
Here's my success story:
T2 Diagnosis 15th April 2010
HbA1c: 13.8 :shock:
Cholesterol: 6.8 :shock:
HDL: 0.9
LDL: ?
Weight: 100Kg
After 6 months low carb plus excercise (and a stay in hospital to have a stent fitted after some horrific chest pain), I got blood results last week and they are:
HbA1c: 5.4
Cholesterol: 3.7
HDL: 1.2
LDL: 1.26
Weight: 81Kg
I am on statins and aspirin for blood and cholesterol control, the only thing not fully in the green yet is my triglycerides, which have come down from 4.6 to 2.7....but I'm pretty hopeful that they should be in the green zone by my next test.
What's especially good though is that I feel far better these days than I have done in years
