I have not had blood sugar testing since loosing weight but my fasting sugars had been in between 100 and 110 with an A1C of about 5. when they were testing me for small fiber neuropathy last summer they had me do a test where after fasting I had to drink a certain amount of a special orange drink and sit for 2 hours to check how my body was using insulin. Type 2 is 199 or more after 2 hours, mine was 194. That was one of the reasons I started working on loosing weight.

Keep up the good work on your weight loss. I need to really work on it this year. My dogs need to lose weight, too! 😉🐶

My mom had heart disease, RA, lupus, Type 2 diabetes, Hashimoto’s, etc. I am not diabetic but my A1C is going up and I am definitely at risk. I have Hashimoto’s, too, and thyroid issues are connected to heart, diabetes, etc. My losing weight will help me avoid full blown diabetes and reduce my risk of heart disease. It will also help my joints and ability to exercise. I’m sure I would have much more energy if I lost weight.
