Hello everyone,
I recently did a blood test, and my hba1c went up (36 to 40). I was initially shocked as I had been keeping up with my exercises when I had the time (1hr+ walks) mainly on the weekends due to work, but I think my self-control has dipped due to getting into the normal ranges. As I adopted the all or nothing mindset where I cut completely everything remoletley unhealthy out of my diet, I guess it would make sense how I slipped back into eating foods I shouldn't be eating or having too much of it.
My medication had been dropped to 1 tablet instead of 2 (morning and evening) so I'm not sure if everything contributed to my hba1c rising, or just plain complacency.
I think it still comes down to me not accepting my diagnosis and learning to live with it. I thought coming off medication would solve my problems, but it could potentially lead to more.
