Default My October Stats

I lost 14 pounds in October, so about 3.5 pounds per week average.

My AIC went from 8.6 in July to 5.3 in October, which is considered excellent.

My vitamin D is low at 15 when it should be 30, so my doctor has me on 50,000 vitamin d once a week for 4 weeks and then once a month after that. He said to take calcium supplements too, so I've been incorporating them into my calorie plan since last week.

I've lost a total of 95 pounds now.

---------
AIC is the measure of a person's blood sugar over the previous 3 months. You should only be concerned with that if you have pre-diabetes or are diabetic. The lowering of mine was a direct result of my diet, so I wanted to include it.

Thank you all for your kind words & support.

I believe A1C is a test to check your glucose levels for pre diabetics and diabetics. I have read some about it before. I think doctors are trying to get the test more widely used to diagnose and treat diabetes.

Way to go on the A1c Belinda.

That is very impressive. My last A1c was 6.4 in July. I would love to know what it is now but I am currently without health insurance. But I would guess it would be lower. What kind of diet plan are you using?
