New to this community. Will turn 49 next month. Have not been feeling great the past few years. Struggling with constant hunger, binge eating and stress eating with resistant weight loss. Have asked my PCP to do an A1C for 2 years but he has refused since I am only about 10-15 pounds overweight and my fasting glucose is normal. I recently had my A1C done on my own through ownyourownlabs.com. My A1C is now 5.6. Up from 5.3 in 2017, and 5.0 in 2014 ordered by my previous MD. I have been doing a terrible job of following a keto diet due to keto treats and social pressure from family and friends who just want me to “eat normal”. I cannot moderate sweets, even keto treats apparently. Looking forward to being part of a group of people who eat like me. Love Dr. Tro and all he has done. I have been an RN for 29 years and struggle to see the declining health of so many families and friends.
