Good afternoon everyone. I am getting a really late start to journaling today. Back to back meetings this morning - the up side is I did get a cup of coffee in. So - I got a call from my doctor today and my latest HbA1c test came back at a 5.8! they want me to go down to 1 shot of insulin a day. I am stunned - this page and tracking my food has latterly saving my life. Diabetes is getting its ass kicked thanks to diet and exercise. I am totally stoked. I hope everyone has a great day working their plans.

I got rid of my insulin years and was on an oral med 3x daily, last a1c was 5.6 and now down to 1 per day. Our bodies can recover from what we did to them!

Good job Tahoebrun! LOL I’m in the same boat! No insulin, no meds, just diet controlled. Kind of messes with the doctor’s minds. LOL 🙋🏻

Wow! You guys are my heroes! I got my A1c down to 5.6 and then fell off the wagon after my foot surgery in January. But being back online here is ideal for helping me focus on what needs to be done. Thanks!
