[QUOTE="Route 66, post: 2106948, member: 507504"] Hi Sheila, Well done for the weight loss and reduction in BP. That is fantastic. I am very similar position to you in that I was diagnosed at the end of May with a similar hbac1 of 107 and BP around 150 every day. Like you my BP is now down and is at a more respectable level of 120 with meds. I have also cut out all of the sugary drinks, cakes, pastries, chocolates and ice cream although I do get a craving for something sweet still, particularly late at night. So far, I havn't succumbed. Well done for the walking. I am managing about a mile a day. I am due to attend the Desmond Course on Monday, so it is very helpful to hear that you found it useful. I am hoping to get a lot from it. Good luck on the 19th - I hope that you find a good reduction. From one in a very similar position. [/QUOTE]
