My husband had a blood test recently and had a fasting bg level of 6.3, looking back his previous test 6 months ago was 5.9 so obviously on the road to diabetes.
Well he has been low carbing and slimming, actually he has a bmi within normal limits but he was carrying a bit of excess weight on his stomach, Anyway he has lost 7kgs and his fasting this morning was drumroll..... 5! It has been quite interesting as one night he cheated and his fasting was 7.4 which was a bit of a wake up call. He could still lose a few more kilos to slim his stomach down and then he will start testing on what he eats. At the moment he is just low carbing and cutting down the calories but only testing first thing due to the cost of strips.
