Good lab work

Just wanted to let out a cheer for my recent blood work. Got the results yesterday and my A1C is 6.0. It makes me happy to see that all of my hard work to keep control is paying off. I also got great cholesterol numbers - LDL is 67. Now, if i could only find a way to lose the 20 extra pounds that I am carrying around, I'd be all set!!!!

Yay Linda!!!!!! Congrats on the great numbers. I would love to get the HDL to that level (i'm only 24 ) How did you manage the great HDL? I'm proud of you.
