My hba1c came out to be 6.6 my weight is 133 pounds can i reverse diabetes with weight loss?

It depends how tall you are. The weight of 133 pounds may not be overweight. If you are not overweight then weight loss would not help. Are you taking meds for diabetes? If so, your hemoglobin A1C is ok. If you are not on meds, it is borderline. Exercise may help. If you are overweight, weight loss might help. See your doctor for more information. Best of luck to you!

You have about 65% chance of reversing it by losing 10% body weight and exercising 30 minutes/day. Visit this site for information on diet for managing glucose intolerance: https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/diabetes/overview/diet-eating-physical-activity
