I am managing my HbA1c levels.

During my health checkup 6 months ago,
my HbA1c was 6.5.
They said anything up to 6.4 is pre-diabetic,
but 6.5 and above is a confirmed diabetes diagnosis.
So, I have been officially diagnosed.
When I consulted with my doctor,
I was given a choice: start medication or try to lose weight through effort.
I didn't really want to take medication, so I told him I would try to lose weight first.
I started my diet right then and there.
The process has been... difficult, to say the least... and it's still ongoing.
I switched my rice to brown rice, and I used to love snacking on things like cookies, but I've cut those down significantly..
For bread, I only eat whole grain... just with peanut butter,
I try to skip dinner whenever possible,
And most importantly, regarding alcohol... I only drink about once a month.
Since I stopped drinking, the urge to eat late-night snacks has decreased significantly, which has been a major change in my lifestyle.
I've also been trying to exercise consistently by brisk walking..
I was 182cm / 95kg... but now I weigh about 86kg.
I had another blood test today,
and it dropped to 6.2.
My doctor said I did a good job, but I still have a long way to go, and told me to come back in 6 months.
I hope that by then, it drops another 0.3 and reaches the 5% range.
After coming back from the hospital, I asked my wife if I could eat something sweet today, but she just laughed at me lol.
I'll try to eat as much as I want in 6 months. T_T
