Hi there - being diagnosed at age 65 of type 2 diabetes in May 2018 has probably saved my life!!
My father became type 2 diabetic at age 65 too! I was not surprised when it happened to me!!
I had a HbA1c of 67 in May 18 which with a low carb diet and lots of exercise I've reduced to 41! No meds!! Feel very proud of myself!
Keeping it up is the next challange!
