[QUOTE="DCB 2, post: 2273924, member: 471568"] Hi Jack, The last fasting number you gave is great for a newbie. Since I from the the states I translated 6.2 to 111.6 and that is in the range for people with diabetes, Joslin Diabetes Center, Boston Massachusetts. I was initially getting these fasting numbers when I started out. Now I am getting 4.72 to 5.27 fasting numbers. It has taken me about 4 years to get to this point. I am not not disparaging the progress you have made it is outstanding !!!! The point that I am trying to make you need to give yourself time. I am sure you will get there. I never had remission as a goal, I just made an effort to keep my numbers the best I could on a daily basis. With diet, exercise along with losing 50 lbs I was going hypo and was taken off my meds. Last month I got my first non diabetic A1C. Yes the seismic event centering around the central US was me jumping up and down. If I get a good A1C in August the I would be in the first stages or remission. Going into remission is now a goal, I sense the kill, but in the begging the goal I had was get my numbers as close to normal as possible. Over time I got there, but it took time. Jack you have a great start keep it up !!!!!!! Dave [/QUOTE]
