Good job!
I was diagnosed in Feb '13 with an a1c of 11.5%, now I'm around 6.3% and dropped about 15lbs....not watching my diet as closely as I was in the beginning, but I know what foods to stay away from....keep up the good work!

How I did it...
I don't know if this is posted anywhere else, I am sure I can't be the only person who discovered this.... I am no different from anyone else, when I found out that I was diabetic I pretty much freaked. The doctors and dietitians could only help so much, because they didn't have diabetes!! Remember when the doctor fist poked your finger with a needle... remember how much that hurt, well they only know what the book teaches them, they don't have to poke themselves three times a day, they don't know that it hurts less if you poke on the side of your finger vs. straight in the middle. So I really did my research, and found out that a lot of these help-sites and diabetic resources are written by non-diabetics and/or For-Profit organizations.... I found that many of these diabetic recipes only increased my sugar! That is when I realized that being a healthy diabetic is really a LIFESTYLE, not something that you practice sometime.... you have to live it 24/7!
That is when I discovered the CaveMan Diet.... it is so simply... eat like a caveman... and no one else! Think about how a caveman lived, what he ate... Caveman did not have ANY processed foods in his diet, (there weren't any) ... if it could not be eaten from the end of a stick, cooked in a fire, or picked off a bush/tree then it was not eaten. Just think about what a caveman had access to... there were no breads... yeah I said it... BREADS... because caveman did not make flour.... In my next post I will tell you just how to create a lifestyle for yourself that will make you wonder why everyone doesn't live this way...

I am in the same boat... I was diagnosed in Feb of this year with a A1c of 10 and since then I have lost 41 pounds and now my most recently A1c of 5.6....I am now on metformin once a day versus twice a day, which means I may have to tighten up my diet but better then the metformin craps

I was diagnosed 3 months ago with an a1c of 8. Today it was 5.7. I have lost 50 pounds (yes 50 in 3 months) eating low carb and passing on bread, rice, pasta, potatoes and sugar.
