I knew that my weight last week was high and would show up as a greater loss this week, and it did. That's 25 lbs. so far and some to go, but this is working well. My BG readings are very good and stable without wild swings, and I will be very interested in my A1c test results, which should be along in about 2 weeks or so. I should definately be down in the 5% range, since I was 6.2 the last time. I wonder if I can get down to the upper 4% range, which would be truely a non-diabetic score. Probably not without a great deal of very hard work and more control that I would be willing to exercise. The 5% range is generally recognized to be a very safe spot in terms of diabetic complications, and I will settle for that I think. It is also becoming apparent that having a weight a little greater than the so called advertised ideal is more healthy. So I am thinking in terms of 210 to 220 rather than 190 as my eventual goal.
Hopefully I can get down to 220 by the first of July.
