[QUOTE="yolageen, post: 1091018, member: 244411"] Hi. I was diagnosed type 2 last Sept, with HbA1C of 7.3. Retest in Dec showed decrease to 6.4. Since diagnosis I have lost 2st 10lbs, and want to lose another 2st 8lbs to allow 'wriggle room'. So far so good. I went to Devon a couple of weekends ago and succumbed to the temptation of a devon scone, laden with clotted cream and strawberry jam. Def not on my diet list! Very high carb and high fat, but a one off! Still I used the logic that if I was going to high carb I needed the high fat to offset it! Whether my reasoning was correct or not, it was glorious, and because of exercise undertaken I was still within my net calorie intake for the day. That said I have ordered a codefree meter so I can be a bit more scientific if I lapse again. [emoji14] next HbA1C bloods due to be tested this week. [/QUOTE]
