Received my Hba1C result on Friday and was told it was 5.6, with my cholesterol being 3.3. I've now lost over a stone and a half since being diagnosed four months ago, I walk for 30 minutes a day five times per week, (considering that a lazy swine like me only walked to the kitchen before I was diagnosed!), I have my five fruit and veg per day. That's up from 0 fruit and veg. I don't eat chocolate or cakes although I did feel a little guilty eating an Apple & Rhubarb crumble for my dessert, (First time I've had a dessert since Christmas). I know this is my first Hba1C and I feel really pleased about the result but should I be? Is it a false dawn or am I going the right way to controlling my diabetes? Please tell me that I've got it under control!
