I get my new results tomorrow. Last time 7.4. Any guesses what new one will be? I have really tried hard and I'm really nervous.
 
I will go for a nice round 7.0% good luck
 
I'm going to 7.1% 🙂
 
I am really confused. Although my bg's have been quite good it came back at 8.0!!!! I just don't understand it. My endo said going by an average of my readings I should have been in the 6's. On the good side I have lost 5 lbs. The fight, against higher bg's, start now!
 
I found a similar type of thing but the opposite , when my hba1c came back good at 6.9% i had put on weight 😱 because i had been having quite a few hypos .🙂Well done on weight loss 🙂
 
Thanks. But I'm gutted. Makes you wonder if it's worth going on. This is the nearest I've been to giving up.

Don't give up hope! Although the result is not what you had hoped for it's not anywhere near terrible 🙂 It;s in the past now, so look forward to doing even better in the future, remember we are here for you if you need some support and encouragement 🙂
 
Try not to be too discouraged by your results. Okay, it wasn't what you were hoping for, but as Alan said it's not terrible either. You've lost weight which is no mean feat. I can't lose weight no matter what I try, and believe me I try so hard!

You have something to work on and you know you'll get support on here. My HbA1c was 12.1 back in February and I was trying just as hard then as I am now at 6.7. It's so easy to get down when things don't seem to reflect our efforts. I'm sure next time will be much better. XXXXX
 
You lost weight, that's always good. Maybe your body needs time to adjust, keep going🙂
