Hello. I used the forum a great deal when I was first diagnosed a couple of years ago. Got off to a wonderful start with my HbA1c etc and became a bit obsessed - which I felt was necessary - although some of my nearest and dearest thought I was too focused. Then gradually I eased off - first on my Olympic swimming schedule (!) and then having a little bit of a treat now and again - and I have now lost the control I had - with my HbA1 c rising twice in a row.
HbA1c. 47 this time with a very slight rise in cholesterol.
I am posting this to affirm to myself that I will now regain the control I held so dear - and not be swayed by my own inner voice or by the voices of those non- diabetics who suggested I was taking it all too seriously. Eventually and without really paying attention, I have given in to both.
It HAS to be taken seriously!!!!
So just wanted to say hello everyone and to anyone on the forum who recognises me - and I look forward to getting back in the groove!
