So.... I got a text from my Doctor yesterday with my HBa1c result.
Not as good as Stew's, but still a drop.
So, onward and downward, I just have to work a bit harder on the food choices long term.
There is NO WAY I want to end up on an insulin pump (which is what she wanted to do with me and Stew!).
Happier thoughts... I've got weigh in at Weight Watchers at lunchtime today.
I THINK I will have a small loss again.
Time will tell.
After the meeting, I am going to grab a few groceries (not a full shop) and come home.
By then it will be time to pick up the kids from school.
ONWARD...
I hate posting FAT photos of me... but come on... we all know I got fat again!
So.... here's where I'm at:
Next photo in November.
AND THE WEIGH IN RESULT IS IN... I lost .700 grams this week. So I'm happy with that. 😁
What an awesome day it is ... three positives today. My blood result, my progress photos and a loss again. Cool eh? *smiles*
Thanks for all the lovely comments today... I was a bit hesitant to put those photos up... but bit the bullet!
It's been a busy evening helping sort out a couple of walk routes with 'THE BOSS' lady. But she got there in the end.
Time to wind down and enjoy the next couple of hours before bedtime.
Congrats on your A1C. That is awesome news and proof of your hard work!
ReplyDeleteWell done on your improved blood results. Have a good day.
ReplyDeleteWell done with your results keep up the good work xx
ReplyDeleteCongrats in the great results mum. Keep up the walking and make good food choices.
ReplyDeleteWell done. Keep up the great work.
ReplyDeleteThat photo comparison is wonderful! What is the actual weight difference? Regarding your HbA1c, if you cut more of the glucose spiking foods you will see a huge difference next time (note I was careful not to suggest you go low carb.. hehe...) Well done, it's exciting isn't it to feel 'on track' again and doing something positive? I'm looking forward to seeing those comparison photos of you melting away.
ReplyDeleteI think when you lose the weight this time it will be different - you now realise how easy it is to regain and hopefully changes you make will be permanent. Weight loss is only part of the journey, it's the maintenance when the real struggle begins and I'm sure you can do it. Keep up the great work!!!
Weight difference is about 5 kilos
DeleteWell done Chris, you look great and I'm envious of your slim legs and ankles. Lynda, I always love reading your responses. I know you've posted some online articles that you like re: eating and health. Can you please post a link to another as I have to reduce my weight and specifically my cholesterol.... thanks, Christy
DeleteI find dietdoctor.com is the best place now for everything low carb and sensible! Loads of articles, recipes, movies, medical knowledge, diabetes information and success stories. You may have to pay a monthly fee for additional information but comparatively it's very cheap.
Deletethanks so much xxx
DeleteI don't comment on here often but I just wanted to tell you that you are doing such a good job!! The photos show a definite difference - the walking is changing your shape (subtle but it's there!) Keep it up and you will get there before you know it.
