Great news. Keep up the effort and your HbA1c should be even lower in 3 months time!

How? I dont really know myself.! Will power never has been my strong point but im really enjoying experimenting with food again!
Keeping carbs between 70-90 per day instead of per meal (as i was) helps apparently.
I have been nervous of high fat as i had a heart attack 6 years ago (****, next month)
That scared me in to watching my fat /calorie in take but now on this blood test cholesterol down too. 2.7
Eating lots if chicken, (even a KFC was ok) trying recipes recommended by others including haloumi chips, and almost completely cutting out carbs...
Indian restaurant had veg curry instead of rice
Family meal out, swapped chips for butternut squash
Having breakfast (of some kind) instead of nothing
Drinking lots (atleast it feels like it) of waster.
No beer. Grown penchant for red wine.
I could go on but i hope this helps and inspires others.
Its cliche, but if i can do it YOU CAN!
