Type 2 Still Controlled After 6.5 Years, Diet Only

Grateful said:

Just had my annual checkup. Over the past year, A1C has dropped from 42 to 36 and I have (deliberately) lost several kilos.

This marks 6.5 years of Type 2 controlled through diet only. For four of those years my A1C has been in the 30s, for two of them, in the low 40s.

I hope this provides some encouragement to those who may just be starting on their journey after a T2 diagnosis.

Thanks everyone.

For some reason the NHS diabetes nurse now wants to test me every 6 months instead of annually, despite the numbers being unremarkable (and lower than a year ago). Actually I don't mind, it will help to keep me on my toes.
