[QUOTE="Fleegle, post: 1516441, member: 402985"] I was diagnosed with a A1C of 95. I messed about for a couple of weeks reading things on this site then researching - I am carefully cautions. I thought I was doing low carb, with a bit of rice and some brown pasta - then I realised that was not the case. So I hit the LCHF diet hard about 7 weeks ago. I can be ruthless and determined and some days just about got to 10, most days less than 20 and aside from a BBQ (unintentionally) where good knows what I ate I have not gone above 35 in a day. Now if my BGs peak over 7 after a meal I have a mild panic as to why. Typically I can remain under 6.5. Last Monday, almost 9 weeks since my diagnosis, my HBA1C was 44. I put that down to the help of people on this site - one or two in particular who have spent time responding to my long emails. I have lost a couple of stones and started walking, using my own gym which was gathering dust. I still intend to try the Newcastle diet at some point soon - but I think better to think it through and know the best time in your calendar to fall apart in week 3. Thanks for all of your help to date - a long way to go. [/QUOTE]
