Hello, I am Juanita. I have type two diabetes and had an A1C of 9.3, had, it was checked in February, 6.8. My glucose is below 110 now so I expect the A1C to be lower in August when I do the lab work again. I really rely on MyFitnessPal to keep me aware of my macros and nutrients and their connection to calories. I lost pounds and inches and medications stopped. I thank God and the staff at MyFitnessPal.

    Hi Juanita! First of all, congratulations!! What are your macros set at? I’m prediabetic and wondering what proportions are best. Thanks! Susan.

    My new goal is to keep my A1C down, I do labs August 25th. My glucose is randomly checked three times a week and I had a couple of spikes. Mostly, the glucose is around 100. I can’t advice you on macros, not having it yet is a good thing, you need to visit a dietician to prevent it through meal planning.
