It had been 6.3 and as high as 6.7 6 months ago, plus diabetes is really strong in my family. 2 weeks ago, I was tested and my A1C is down to 5.6 - major change per Dr. and now totally normal. YAY!!!! I've lost 18 lbs and my sciatica pain is also way down. I tried WW 30 years ago and only lost 8 lbs. in 8 weeks. With the new app, it is so much easier and I think more accurate tracking plus mindful eating is the difference.

The test is when we go to Marathon at the end of Aug. I want to be able to have a few "vacation drinks" aka pina coladas, at least one fancy dinner out for hubbys birthday, and tiki bar food with dog along without getting sick from my stomach not being used to rich food. I'm thinking the secret will be moderation - have treats, but then the rest of the day eat & drink light or eat/drink light during the day for flavor splurge at night.
