Diagnosed pre diabetic in February. Went strict low carb/healthy fat (under 60g most days) then had a holiday and wasnt great and now struggling to get back into it.
So i have started testing more frequently to try to kick start me.
Fastings always between 6&7 even after a 16 hour fast.
Last night i had a large meal of salmon and celeriac dauphinois (also chocolate) and after 2 hours my glucose was 6.2. So during the day and whilst eating my glucose is pretty normal. But the fasting readings are getting me down ans confused. Its helping me focus and i will try to stick to lower carbs again now. I have read about dawn phenomenon in diabetics but found no real solution.
All thoughts welcome thanks
