Just had my first three month Hb1Ac results.
I was 7.6 Hb1Ac and 5.6 cholesterol when I was diagnosed at the end of May, and now I'm 5.9 Hb1Ac and 4.5 cholesterol. I've lost two stone four pounds so far as well.
I'm pretty pleased with the results, but now I'm wondering - where now? Do I need to get these numbers any lower or should I be happy with these as they fall within normal levels? I'm six foot and 11 stone 12 pounds now. Should I be happy with that weight or keep on losing? I seem to have developed a real hunger in the last few days. Suddenly the level of food that was sustaining me isn't enough. Is this a common thing with continued weight loss? Is it my body telling me to stop?
