I have had my second hba1c test results yesterday. Since November 15 it's dropped from 49 to 39 and I've lost a stone. The doctor was pleased and asked how I'd done it - I explained I'd followed a low carb diet and tested my blood glucose levels to check what I could and couldn't tolerate.
Having had absolutely no advice from my gp other than to "be really focused about losing weight" I know I wouldn't be in this position without the advice and support you gave when I visited the forum so just wanted to thank you all as it has made a big difference to me. I've not posted much but found it really helpful to read others comments and helped keep me on track even when I was fed up not being able to eat 'normally'.
