After all the back problems I finally got that resolved with the nerve procedure. It really worked well, which suprised me. I can finally walk the golf course again get some exercise - and could do so the day after the procedure. BG is staying well under control, and I am still taking Metformin, although I cannot honestly say I am getting any benefit from it, at least in terms of BG control. It is early days there however. I have essentially met my weight loss goals for the first 3 months of 25 lbs - not going to quibble about a lb., esp. since I had all the back trouble and couldn't hardly walk for 2 months.
A1c test results were back at 6.35, which is BS, and I don't mean blood sugar. If I had known before I took that mail order thing what I know now I would never had done it. Those things are very inaccurate. Will get regular test at lab when I have my 6 month blood work done in about 3-4 weeks. Am expecting an a1c in the mid to low 5's. Probably have high cholestrol, but am hoping the hdl component will be up, the ldl down, and the tri's way down. we'll see.
