Help! I was diagnosed type 2 a year ago with A1C of 48. Since then I have carefully lost 12 kilos and am down to my pre pregnancy weight, 55 kilos, of my twenties (currently 76 years old). I have also, with diet and Libre 2 monitoring, got my AIC down to 6.0% or 42 mmol/mI which believe is heading towards the bottom of prediabetes.
My problem now is that I don’t wish to lose any more weight, which does seem to continue happening, and would like some advice on what to add to my diet to sustain my current weight. We eat sensibly, organic as much as possible, fresh meat, fish, veg and fruit… so no cake, biscuits, bread, pasta, etc.
I am trying to get an appointment with a dietician, but they are quite booked up in my area (Limousin, France), so would be grateful for help. I did notice from my monitoring that, on the occasions I ate more than I really wanted, i.e, bigger portions, my glucose spiked higher than what I would call normal, so I guess I need suggestions that stop my weight loss and don’t increase the spikes.
Many thanks for any help…
