Smaller goals help keep us motivated! Way to think smart about it and not expect it to be 5.9 next time.

Molly,

Stay here on DF, and you will do great! Congratulations on your lowest number in a few years! When I first found DF, I was over 8 & my last A1c was 6.1!

I set small goals so that I won't be upset if I don't reach it...
