rather proud of myself :)

[eat2live]

Hi friends.

i am feeling rather proud of myself, all this week my BS have been in the sixes and even fives!!

because i have to buy my sticks etc, i have been taking 3 readings aday..1 fasting 2 afternoon 3 evening,

unless i try a different food then i will check before and after it, but more or less keeping to same foods, i know this might be low reading for some, but when i was dx 8 weeks ago...mine was all over the place.....8s....9s...12s...13s etc,

i am excersicing and eating good foods, and i think this has been my best week in feeling healthier

no one else i talk understands when i say i am pleased with my mumbers lol except hubby bless him,

my 1st hba1c was 7%....i go end of the month to hopefully get a smaller reading

thanx for letting me share with you xx

Well done your hardwork is paying off 🙂

Proves the value of testing, innit! Well done you.

That's excellent! You're doing so well, and I'm really pleased to hear that you are feeling the benefits 🙂 I think that you don't realise before you get diagnosed just how much an effect the high levels have on the way you feel and it's only when you start tackling it and getting regular 'in range' levels that you really notice the difference!

Well done and keep up the good work - you have every reason to feel proud of yourself! 🙂

It's not something you can convert very accurately, because the meter readings are only 'snapshots' of your levels so unless you take lots of readings at lots of different times you're unlikely to have sufficient data. However, there is a converter on this page:

Well done you! They are brilliant readings and doesn't it make a difference when your meter is your friend instead of your enemy? 🙂

Fingers crossed they stay that way and that you continue to feel well. XXXXX

Great feeling when you have a run of bg readings in range, those numbers look impressive and long may they continue🙂

 

[Lilies]

Oh wow that's great numbers, as a matter of interest what were u getting 3 weeks ago? As I'm about three to four weeks 'behind' you.
