[QUOTE="benniesmum, post: 72432, member: 13738"] Gosh, I feel so inspired reading your stories! I was diagnosed in late Jan 2009 with a fasting BG of 17.9 and postprandial BG in the 20s. With big diet changes and 3x500 Metformin I'm now down to between 4.4 and 7.1 morning BG. I've lost over a stone in weight, and the BG is mostly 5 point something during the day. I had an Hba1c of 10.7 on diagnosis, 9.4 five weeks later and am hoping for a sub 7 in 3 weeks time when I get tested next. My long term aim is to join the 5% club though! I'm one of the lucky ones, as my GP is happy to prescribe as many strips as I need. Good thing too, as measuring BG makes me feel like I'm in control! [/QUOTE]
