| Thanks for the thoughts on the matter so far. I guess I'll wait until the Fall for another blood test at the hospital. If my HBA1C is lower than 5.8 and my fasting is lower than 95, I'll be ecstatic! but still careful from now on.
I have reduced my portion sizes, sugar intake (can't seem to avoid it altogether), severely limit my carbs (100g or so daily) and I exercise at LEAST 1/2 hr daily. I've seen my fasting go down almost 20 points in less than a month (along with 15+ lbs of weight). For that I'm grateful.
I should just keep on doin' what I'm doin' and relax and have some of my favorite foods/drinks once in a while and not worry so much. As long as my yearly blood tests come out in the normal range, I guess I'm doing as good as I can hope to and will have to deal with whatever happens in the future when and IF it happens. |
