Just got back from hols and checked the Surgery for my online HbA1c result of the blood test I gave just before I went away.
Quite surprised to find it was again 27 or 4.6 in old money. I was quite ill for a couple of weeks after Christmas with a sore throat and cold with quite elevated (for me) blood sugars. Very pleased with this one so thought I'd share.
Just about to shower and weigh in to see if any damage caused by eating breakfast at hotel for a week... we shall see.
 

Congratulations - it seems like you really have cracked the right diet for you !
 
Very encouraging, Bulkbiker!
The thing is, you know what works, and you stick to it: I took a few leaves out of your book when I first got diagnosed, and it helped me a lot. Still, nice to see that week or two of higher days of sugars didn't skew the overall average too much.
 


WOW you are doing amazingly well and I admire your will an strength to keep fasting for so many periods.. congratulations
 
Will wait to see if the surgery contact me for any follow up as it is my annual review time... I'm guessing not..
Thanks for all your support.. it is this forum that has helped me the most.
 

The work involved in these types of numbers should never be underestimated. I actually have to spend a little bit of time researching each week to keep myself motivated. also the delicious food and the IF also help.
 
Thanks again for your kinds words and support..makes these experiments worth while.
 
Phenomenal, nothing more to say, the number says it all.
 
Brilliant! And isn't it spot on Bernstein's suggested bg average to reverse/halt complications?
Am delighted for you!
 

Easy peasy! Never had a doubt!

Well done mate!

An inspiration to all those that doubt how healthy you can be!
 
Fantastic!! Your hard work has paid off.
You have been a Inspiration to me.
I enjoy reading about your fasts and success.
 
Well done....I'm not surprised at all, I'm pleased for you.
 
Hi Bulkbiker,
Really well done. The Hba1c is great. My last two (taken 4 months apart) have both been 4.9% which I and my doctor thought was good but yours is better! Keep up the good work.
 
BB,

You really have become a pioneer in fasting and the low-carb lifestyle. Quite inspirational!
