I had my A1c done today. And the verdict is 7.5.  I never had an a1c lower than 8.
I owe it all to one person. Our Moderator Shalyndria has help me to lower my a1c.
Never would of been possible whith out Shy!

| | I'm SOOOOOOO proud of you, Tony!!!  You did all the work, and the accomplishment is yours and yours alone! We sure do make a great team, though!
FYI you guys, this guy worked extra hard for this great of an improvement; in about 4 months he lowered his A1c by almost a whole percentage!! He is testing way more now and giving 110% in trying to achieve better BG levels, after ten years of struggling. This is a true success story, and I'm sure that in another couple of months he's going to be telling us that he's below 7% And I'll be crying in the bathroom at work yet again  :p
Tony, I have no words; you've risen above yourself and that, to me, is a true inspiration!
Shy
P.S. - SunniD, no need to worry about the bunnies! This man's a true carb lover and greens around the world are safe from him lol! |

| | Excellent news Tony and good work.
Hey, I have a question for you. If Shy did such a great job helping you, can you rent her out for consultation?
However I am quite sure I cannot afford the fees!

Congratulations, Tony! That is no small feat, and having someone supportive (in this case, Shy ) helps much more than words can express. Keep up the excellent work!

| | | Tony, congrats my friend! Every day a little better, that's all we need to do. Taking small steps towards a realistic goal is the best way to achieve it and maintain it. 7.5 today, 7.0 tomorrow.......
Good job. Keep it up, man!
