Gail - the readings in the States are different than here so I don't know what's high or low for you, BUT doing the happy feet dance cause I CAN do math and 267 to 120 and 135 this morning is an AWESOME diff!!! WELL DONE girl.. WELL DONE!! I am HONESTLY doing the happy feet dance.. I would take a picture but it would be blurry from the dancing LOL!! super happy for you !!!!!!!

Gail - the A1C numbers I "get" - they are done the same here (mine was 8.4 when I was diagnosed 3 years ago).. for the past year every 3 months i have to be tested and been averaging 6.4 to 6.8 (and then given the all clear to go every six months instead ha!) Anyway.. i know how freaken hard it is to change the carb intake (so does Susan) and I am truly totally impressed with how much you have accomplished - you have made amazing progress and the fact you are willing to make those changes speaks volumes about your commitment to getting it under 6!! And you ARE saving your life my friend, you're right!! huge kudos to you Gail... huge!!!! Knowledge is power and the more you learn about what the disease does, the easier the changes become!! So impressed - keep up the great work - you are doing GREAT things for yourself!!!!

Carol happy birthday hope you have a fabulous dinner tomorrow night celebrating. And cake on birthdays never counts for any calories so enjoy!!

Gail you better not stop posting your numbers I love seeing them every day and it inspires me to keep going too! Believe me I totally understand the excitement at the numbers!!!! I do believe I have actually skipped out of the doctors office once or twice! You're absolutely right it is an every day struggle ....... I got cocky last year when my number went down again and just line the weight loss, made the mistake of thinking OK I'm done. Yay me. And I got complacent as u already know. So we get it's a daily struggle my friend! Really we do!! But knowledge is power and the more you learn the more you find what you can have to satisfy your carbs withou damaging yourself. It's like your sweet tea remember six months ago when you never would've believed how much you could cut down or change it and now look at you .... Using low-carb bread and small amounts of whole-grain pasta piled up full of veggies and chicken on top lets u have a treat that's healthy so u will learn ways to switch up stuf here and there and still be able to enjoy foods u love. Huge congrats !!!

Owr - think of little Harry every time I see your name on the newsfeed! So very glad to hear he's improving daily and so very glad you're son and his wife have you in their lives to be such a strong support!

I'm using Siri on my phone because I think I broke my finger last night so I'm off to the walk in clinic shortly ..... Thot it was just a sprain but not so sure now lolololol. Will share re story of my klutziness later !!!
