[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2295677, member: 401801"] Breathe. Believe it or not.... You woke up to GOOD news. A HbA1c of 49? A lot of us started out with double that, some even more... And got our numbers down in no time at all. Total cholesterol doesn't really mean anything, you'd need the breakdown and the ratio's, but I'd not worry about that number, honestly. (Especially women from a certain age do better with slightly elevated cholesterol.) From where I'm sitting? It's looking hopeful. Really. Not just saying that to ease your mind. Just a few changes in your diet and you'll be back in the non-diabetic range. It really is that easy. You probably read The Nutritional Thingy by now... And you've already implemented some changes in your diet. [I]You're going to be okay.[/I] It's nowhere near as bad as you think it is right now. No need to feel ashamed about anything either. Our bodies just can't cope with the carb intake other people are fine with. Lucky DNA. Jo [/QUOTE]
