[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2491281, member: 53162"] Hi [USER=553113]@Brookemurph[/USER] Welcome to the forum :) Wow 99% is pretty incredible, I have to admit I am about 10 years diagnosed and I have never achieved this, nor do I strive to, it's setting realistic targets which I know I can hit, so my time in range is around 60-75%, depending on time of month (as hormones impact my control), as well as stress, illness and other life factors which affect glucose levels. My advice to any newly diagnosed is take it day by day, don't set yourself up for unrealistic targets, only you will know in time what's right for you, yes our graphs look like mountains and valleys, but don't stress about it, it's simply a guide however you will see and learn in time that you can manage it more easily with experience and knowledge.
