My doctor called me in today to talk about my sugars, I send her a weekly report on how they are doing. so I get in her office and she says its early but I want too do a A1C test, I had one in Decemeber that was 8.1 so she took my blood and said she be back in a few minutes and I just talk to her nurse the nurse took my bllod pressure 114/60 and the my doctor came charging thru the door and siad Im not sure if i should take this again. she ask me what i thought my a1c was since ive been on MFP for just over 45 days, I said maybe 6.5 since ive been having lower numbers ever since i started. she said close 6.4, she said that if I could do this in 45 days , she felt I could be off insulin by summer and just using metformin.

    That is such great news! I hope to get there too. Maybe not by the summer, but hoping by the fall. I notice the change in my numbers even having dropped 16 lbs...can't wait to see what they are when I see my doc in April.

    Nice work!!!
