Message: <blockquote data-quote="OceansEdge" data-source="post: 1178878" data-attributes="member: 292942">first post diagnosis check up yesterday (7.5 weeks), had the Hb1ac bloodwork done a week ago (6.5 weeks) - 3 month average down from 12.8 to 8.9 - as it's a 3 month average, and I've only been at it 6 weeks she is exceptionally pleased with my progress - I think she was a tad shocked, I don't think she has a lotta folks able to 'go it alone' and get a handle on it so quickly. Last 3 weeks numbers are pretty steady between 5.5 and 7.5 ... so she's happy and we're quite sure the 3 month average will be down next time if I keep this up. Kidney function good, cholesterols and blood pressure are fine - wasn't even worried about doing a foot exam (just a 'mind you be careful with em and watch for anything') ... and an appointment for the optometrist in August (first available)And I'm down 6 lbsEveryone is very pleased <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
