And the number is..... 7.1 !!! Down from 12.7 (yiiiikes) when I started. Ideally diabetics should stay under 6.5 (Dr. Hyman says 5.5 because 6-6.5 in normal people would be considered pre-diabetes). Anywayyyy I am soooo sooooooo happy with this number!!! I still need to go completely off my meds, and I haven't started regular exercise yet, so as I mentioned before I've got some hard work ahead. But for right this second I'm just grateful for this huge change in my health. And
I made it happen!!
Wow Tasha!
ReplyDeleteThat test result is great. It must give you consolation to know that you are soooooo close to normal and you haven't even started the exercise program! You have this whole other part to your recovery strategy you haven't executed yet. It will be work, but it looks like you are well on your way to developing sustainable eating habits and I know you can find ways to incorporate exercise into your life.
Love,
Dad
Woooo hoooooo!#@&*# That is amazing Tash. I'm so so so proud of you. I want to have a phone chat soon so we can catch up and you can tell me more about everything. I love you.
ReplyDeleteGood work, Tash! I am proud of you for sticking to this. Just think what will happen once you start walking. Maybe it will be easier with fall weather. I wish I could go on a walk with you.
