[QUOTE="Amyp84, post: 2368029, member: 537327"] Thanks for replying. Out of interest, how do you know I’m 36?? I do have weight to lose. A few years ago I put on about 3 stone for no apparent reason and have struggled to lose it since. My hba1c has been going up slowly over the past few years although I didn’t know this till my gp told me a couple of weeks ago. I lost about a stone during lockdown last summer, I think through stress. Wasn’t down to a change in exercise or diet that’s for sure. But my hba1c has still gone up a little. I’m so worried that losing weight isn’t going to help because it hasn’t so far. And like I say, I know it can take time after swapping to a LCHF diet for bloods to come down, but if readings are up and down, sometimes higher than what I’m currently getting as a ‘norm’ what is going on?? Is there a way to tell how what your daily levels equate to in terms of an hba1c reading? Hope that makes sense! As in, what daily readings I should aim for in order for my hba1c to be below 48 for example? [/QUOTE]
