Group 7-day waking average?

So here is the news...
After my first 6 month check, the DN informs me my HbA1c has gone down from 51 to 40!
Kidney and liver functions all good and cholesterol is now 2.6.
BMI is 23.
If I manage the next check in 6 months at the same number, they will consider it in remission.
I guess that's up to me then.
All on no medication... (but I still can't play the piano!)

Pretty pleased really...

Thats brilliant. Well done @Snowwy

That’s great news Snowwy, good on you x
 
@Snowwy well done on your great results. 🙂
Keep doing what you're doing - it's obviously working to your advantage.

@Snowwy I don't know about HbA1c because these tests are not carried out here but everyone seems to be delighted and so I am too - congratulations. I did Google it and now know more about it.
Oh @Michael12421 - of course they do A1c tests in Spain! That’s why my Spanish endo was always in a huff with me, cos mine was too high for her liking.:D
 
@Michael12421 I was just going to say I'm pretty sure @Bloden had her hba1c'ss done when in Spain xx
 
7.2 today :( . Still no rain or thunder etc. Can’t get the dog out at all so expecting something soon. Eyes playing up again, had stopped the lotion for my eyelids but tried again last night, shouldn’t have bothered, will go back to just holding a warm flannel on them.
Well done @Baz. your result is just great, all your readings are always really good, I hope you are proud of yourself x
@Flower we need to wrap you in bubble wrap to try and keep you safe. Good luck for today x
@ColinUK hope your ears clear soon.
Have a good day everyone x

I'm over the moon @SueEK
 
00:51 BS12.8 just had a bath & going to bed after a bit late midnight Levemir BECAUSE I FINALLY had a no. 2 at 00:30: never been SO happy to go to the little girls room before; COULDN’T resist posting! :D😱🙄😛😎🙂😉

Took a LOT longer that I thought & had actually mentally prepared myself to take more Laxiido in the morning for another day or two! It’s been just a few hours shy of the last no. 2 I had a week ago on Saturday morning!😱🙄o_O

I lost 2.5 kilos this week from not eating much & only vegetable soup the last couple of days!o_O NOW, I might start moving onto more solid foods: slowly; digestive system is still a bit slow but, restarted again!🙄

I’m turning in now & off to bed a very happy, & relieved, bunny!:D

Goodnight & see you in the morning!😉
 
Morning All, Yet another 5.2 from me today and that makes my weekly average of 5.4

5.4 for me at 06:00.
 
06:05 BS 4.4 🙂 I wake up ravenously hungry & have a plan!o_O🙄

I’ll put breakfast in the oven: frozen, foil wrapped, oven steamed basa fillets with frozen micro steamed veg &, because I SO hungry, some oven roasted saute potatoes: first found them in asda as “Crispy Potatoes” & now tesco have followed suit; ready cubed frozen potatoes, about 1 inch by 0.5 inch, done in the oven for 30 minutes approx. Then, after testing 90 minutes after, as usual, take 1 Laxido sachet 30 minutes later: 2 hours after eating; instructions are can’t take an hour before or after food! Take my meds as usual at midday & probably lunch: instructions also sate can’t be taken an hour before or after any oral medication! I haven’t taken any metaformin since last Saturday & won’t restart them until I see what happens? Now my system has restarted I want to keep things running smoothly & see how 1 sachet a day of Laxido works out: long term dose is 1 or 2 daily: will have the weekend to see how it slots into my routines food & medication wise; will try & see GP, or at least speak to, on Monday about taking this regularly & restating metaformin? I definitely have concerns about that as they both make my stomach & digestion react & taking both could be problematic?o_O

A very quick & early Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉

I’m off to start breakfast: I’m hungry!😳🙄o_O:D😉
