I was diagnosed as pre diabetic in March with a reading of 42.
Although I get lots of exercise, I'm a dog walker and walk about 12 miles a day and wasn't overweight but had suffered with eating disorders for years and had been binging on a daily basis for about a year having cakes/scones every day I waa 9.5 stone at diagnosis.
Being diagnosed as pre-diabetic frightened the life out of me and since March haven't binged.
I've been counting carbs having no more than 130 a day at my last blood test in September mh HBAC1 hadn't gone down at all.
I'm 5ft 4 weigh 8 stone 8lbs now.
For breakfast I either have poached egg snd avacado on sourdough or scrambled egg on toast of All Bran with natural yoghurt and fruit, lunch is either chicken or tuna salad but quite often I skip lunch as I don't have time, tea varies but I'm definitely not having anymore than 130 grams carbs.
My only downfall is having a couple of cappuccinos a week.
I never get a good night's sleep
What else can I do?
