My readings are usually between 5.5-6.7 generally before after food etc with a ha1bc of 48 recently diagnosed . I’ve started to loose weight 1st so far and walking a lot . Does this mean I could
Potentially have reversed the diabetes after only 3
Months - I’m also not on any medication. ?
 
Considering you were on the bottom rung of the diagnostic ladder that 1st weight loss and better diet could of had the magic effect.

Doctors are weird, I've seen people given 3 months with A1cs in the mid 50s to improve their figures before a formal diagnosis.

Could be, and we'll done if it works so quickly, but do remember a return to old ways of eating mean it would come back again.
 
Getting down to a nice low pre diabetic or even normal figure is the first step - you then usually have to keep on watching what you eat to remain there. It's essentially a work in progress rather than a one off fix-it effort.
