Lowered HbA1C with cutting sweets

Im diabetic and overweight. I have an HbA1C of 5.8 now! So since 2nd of Feb this year I started cutting out sweets, desserts and snacks completely out of my diet. Before that I ate daily something sweet (like 2-3 Kinder Bueno) and hit an HbA1C of 7 in Jan this year. I was shocked because I always dabbled in the 6.2-6.5 range since dec 2023 when I was diagnosed. I didn’t change anything else in my diet. And I feel so much better. Less stomach aches and less migraines. I also lost some weight. 1,9 kg since the 2nd of Feb. And I’m so proud because I haven’t been counting calories. Just ate what I liked and there is always one big source of protein in my three meals I have daily.
