So my latest HbA1c came back at 44 from 84 in early December and 69 mid Feb.

Very pleased with the gradual improvements, im now back at pre-diabetes levels, touching distance of being able to post in the success story forum.

My case proves low carb and exercise is the solution, limited role for medication.
 
Well done. Great last sentence, keep going.

Congratulations
However, I slightly disagree with your latter sentence. In your case (and many others) that has worked but it doesn't work for everyone including some who have posted on the forums.

I don't want to sound like I am dismissing your status as it's brilliant and I am in a similar state of being drug free from lowering carb and losing weight

Maybe it's me being really picky but I just think it's good to try and not make generalisations as it sets expectations that not everyone unfortunately has been able to bring to fruition

Great to hear of your success. Well done, that is a wonderful achievement.
In your case low carb and exercise has been a winning formula. I hope that will be your continuation plan to maintain your good result. Remain vigilant, and keep reporting your progress to encourage others .
 
Outstanding !!!!!!! keep it up. The only advice I can give you do not keep your foot off the gas...... In other words do no t stop what you are doing keep it up. After my first remission I went off the low carb wagon and created a mess, just stay on top of it. Diet AND exercise worked for me, but diabetes is a complicated condition so a one size fits all approach will not work for everyone. People may need to try different things to figure out what works for them.
