Hi, well I finally got my Hba1c done yesterday. Took the phelbotomy clinic 2 seconds to do what the GP surgery couldn't do in 5 minutes - find a vein and draw from it.

4 months of low carbs (which I intend to continue) and a 10 kilo weight loss.

Here's hoping the figures move in the right direction.....
 
Fingers crossed you get an encouraging result that reflects the hard work you’ve been in @Shaun1971

And well done on the 10 kilo weight loss too! Cracking stuff 🙂

Thank you @everydayupsanddowns , not really calorie counted as such (doubt I would ever do that). Reducing carbs right down has clearly had a big effect. I've become aware of many nice foods that I would never have thought about trying before: blueberries, oily fish, greek yougurts etc. Got a taste for them now.

That’s brilliant! An unexpected bonus 😛😛😛
