[QUOTE="ExiledJack, post: 2273985, member: 522117"] Hi Dave, Thanks for your reply and congratulations on your a1c result. I bet you were delighted and deservedly so. My fasted readings were the last to come down so I’m glad that they’re now constantly in the 5s. I’ve only been diagnosed for 3 months but it feels like I’ve made very good progress already. My weight was 224lbs this morning so the weight loss is going well. I was 305lbs at my heaviest, it’s crazy to think I’ve lost 81 lbs in the last 4 years. I treated myself to a sandwich for the first time yesterday - the bread was 9g of carbs per slice and I had two pieces toasted with bacon and cheese. My blood sugar went from 4.7 to 5.8 and then back down to 5. Typically after a my blood sugar goes no higher than 7. Really happy with that. Some guys and gals on here are doing fantastically well on so few carbs. Im trying to strike a little more balance with carbs being around 70g for the day and exercising heavily and it’s working for the moment. I’m actually looking forward to my a1c result! Thanks.
