Hi All,
Well, I'm having to get serious about reducing A1C, etc. - not new to fitness pal but new to premium features like tracking micronutrients. Does someone out there with high A1C have a screenshot of their nutrition/micronutrition goals page I could use for reference? Thanks, Mark

You may be confusing micronutrients with MACROnutrients. Usually, diabetics need to watch their calories and number of carbs. Carbs are a macronutrient, as is fat and protein.
Also worth noting, each person will have different nutrition/macronutrient goals, even as diabetics. It all depends on age, weight, activity, etc. You should probably talk to your doctor who can refer you to a registered diabetes educator that specializes in helping diabetics with their appropriate macros/calories.
