That is a very healthy sounding eating, exercise and BG day. You should live forever if you keep that up. LOL! Tight control like that keeps the A1c's low and gives you a very good chance at living a long life without diabetes complications. You did not say anything about diabetes meds or insulin so I am assuming that you ar able to have god control with diet and exercise alone. That is great!! Keep it up!

So far I'm prescribed Metformin in 1000mg tabs. The doc told me to take it in the morning but I didn't like the first day, it hit me like an express train so I spaced it into 500mg morning and evening.
