I was diagnosed prediabetic in August 2018, A1c 44, immediately found this website and by Dec 21st had lost 16 lbs and A1c was down to 36. I felt better than I had in years and found LCHF very easy to follow after years of shoving sugar laden fruit, veg , low fat food into my system. I was so...

Well done from one smug to another. I was diagnosed prediabetic in August, Hba1c was 44. Here I am three months later, one stone lighter and today my Hba1c was 36!

Hi, I only started on cutting back the carbs five days ago. The largest spike has been after eating porridge. I have not tried anything other than cutting back on the carbs at this stage. All ideas are so much appreciated.

I have now posted a question but to be honest I don’t know if I have done it correctly as it appears I have started a thread! Sorry Mod note: threads merged

A week ago I was diagnosed as being pre diabetic. Nurse cannot see me until the end of August just three days before I go to the USA for three weeks holiday. My late father was a type 2diabetic but in his day it was just a coping mechanism with medication. I want to reverse it with diet if I...
