Hi,
I have posted on the other forums for a few days but thought it would be a good idea to post on here and introduce myself.
I have pre-diabetic for the last couple of years and pretty much buried my head in the sand once I found out and for some stupid reason thought it would just go away. Well 2 years later it hasn't and because of my own stupidity its gotten worse.
My Hb1ac has come back at 89 which is high so they have put me onto tablets including a statin, with another review in 3 months. I asked about coming of medication if my readings dropped and she said its very unlikely, well reading on here I think she is wrong.
So I have started on the low carb diet and into day 4 now and I already feel like I have lots of energy and that's good because I'm at 150kg so need to loose a lot of weight.
So the plan for me is to get that number down in 3 months, I know its not going to be easy and I may even create a blog a document this journey but I am determined to do it.
