Officially in remission!

[Flakie]

Just had my latest score in and it’s 39 with no meds, so my DN says I’m officially in remission! She doesn’t want to see me again till the summer when she’ll check feet and weight etc but now just a yearly hba1c. That’s 16 months in from a top level of 73 and I’ve now lost 3 stone and four pounds.
It’s been a real learning curve and not easy at times but I’m well pleased!

Congratulations... 😛

Thanks all. Teadance - the weight just went to be honest once I’d cut the sugars out and the not so good carbs. I’ve never been able to lose weight before but I wasn’t even trying this time. I haven’t been this weight in nearly 40 years so I’m very pleased. So yes, cutting the carbs must have done it - I can’t say it was exercise as I loathe it! I did join the gym for six months but got bored so gave that up!
