[QUOTE="meela83, post: 93077, member: 13380"] Hello everyone I haven't posted for a long time as I had forgotten my username, but have been reading posts with interest for the last couple of months. At christmas time my HbA1c was over 14%, today, 4 weeks post DAFNE it is 8.9%. I know to some of you this will still seem really high but for me it is a huge achievement. Have had my first appt at preconception clinic today and have been given targets of 3.5-5.9 pre-meals and below 7.8 1 hour after meals. The pre-meal I can and have been achieving but I have no idea how to get to the 7.8 1 hour after meals, I really don't want to cut out carbs completely but am happy to cut down (currently eating about 40-60g carb with each meal). I know that my body doesn't like chips as the other night I went from 5.4 pre-meal to 15.4 2 hours after. I really want to get my body in the best shape possible for babies and would really appreciate any help or advice. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
