    Got my results today. They did a fasting test and my Hemoglobin A1c was 5.8 H. My doctors current plan is just to test it again at my next years physical (I'm not sure if the is an insurance thing). Fluke or not, my test result is low enough for me not to freak out terribly, but high enough to start watching carbs and continue my normal exercise routine and maybe step up the weight training. Lots of good advise in this thread. Thank you everyone!

    Thanks for sharing. I'm IR and though I'm not happy about it, I'm happy I learned about it. Now I can understand what happens with me, omit sugars and fast carbs and omit spikes and lows that made me feel like drunk or shaky...
    I also start to lose weight! And the sugar cravings disappeared.

    I'm relatively new on mfp and happy about new friends. Especially 'similar eating' ones!
    So feel free to add me!
