Hi Kevin:

In Canada, any number below 7.0 is considered Good. I always stay between 6.0 and 6.5. I was 5.9 only once that I know of. As Richard mentioned it is hard work for most to keep it under 6.0.

Ugh!! I'm not a chocolate lover but if I worked where you work and had it stuck in my face all day......I'd be DEAD.

With an A1c of 7.8 you are a Diabetic. Sorry, to say. With a Good Endocrinologist, Certified Diabetes Educator, Diabetes Communities and a Dietician you will be able to live a Good Life.....if you play the game right. I suggest you get a different business if you Really like what you sell. Good Luck with the Nurse.

Hey Scotland! Cool! I was just kidding about your business Kevin.
I admire your discipline. Good show! Well, I hope that you do Fantastic. Even during a recession, People still enjoy a treat or two....or three..... Yes, please let us know how it goes. YW!

Oh by the way, an A1c of 7.8 on diagnosis is pretty darn Good. So many are dxd. with A1c's like 10.7, 12.2, 15.0, etc. It shouldn't take much to get yours down some. Much Luck Kevin!

Hi Kev:

Thanks for getting back to us with your results. You dropped 3 points. Very Good. Since you were just dxd., if you don't already, a daily brisk 10 minute walk is worth your time to help lower your A1c even more. You will feel even better staying under the 7.0 A1c line. Everything Good takes time and effort. I'm Glad that you are interested in your condition and eating healthy.

I'll be expecting some of your Fine chocolate in the mail. Take Care Kev.
