If your FBGs are a reflection of your overall control, then no doubt about it there should be a great improvement in your next HbA1c. Doing fantastic with the weight loss as well. Good on you.
 
Wet, cold, dark but I'm still here and 'tis SSSF mayhap even halloumi chips aussi - God is good. Not so good is that my fbg was 5.6 on Swipey. Disaster darlings, disaster for <14 gms carb?? (The bottom line from my reading is 5.5/100 is the upper limit of managing.) This fashionable taking back control doesn't seem to cope too well in real life.
 
Bit of an uncomfortable night then at 5:30 a 3.3 then at 6:30 a 3.0 7:42 3.8 thought good on the way up then at 7.58 2.9 after a coffee and breakfast back up to 4.9 now 6.0 I thought it was compression lows but finger prick test says otherwise. Any way headache gone and hands have stopped shaking back to normal.
 
Nursing a nasty chest infection so given up measuring my bloods- they haven’t been great! I’ll be back once fully recovered. Wishing you all well!!
