when i started IF, i was solidly pre-diabetic…my a1c was 6.5. my father, one of his brothers, and their father all had diabetes and i did NOT want to go the same way. it wasn’t the primary factor in deciding to IF, but it certainly was a big one.
i had my annual exam earlier this month and got my results back. my a1c was 4.8! and throw in a little scale victory there, too…i’ve lost 40 pounds since i started at the end of september!
Diabetes is no joke, so definitely good for you! I’m on the beginning side, my doctor told me I am as close to diabetes as possible without being officially classified with it. Hopefully I get to post something similar in the future.
