If you do want to eat something, you could try something I absolutely love: keto bread made in the microwave, 90 seconds. Melt butter to coat mug, then add one egg, a little baking powder (less than a teaspoon), coconut shredded unsweetened. Mix with a fork. Microwave it for 90 seconds. Wait a...

Thank you very much, @Pasha! I've got a meter! Fast blood sugar this morning, about 6am: 85 90 92 The average is 89. I took the three measures on different fingertips one after the other. My meter is the One Touch Verio, but I've ordered another one, too, that I'll receive next week. I'm...

Thank you! I'm sure it'll help!

Congrats on your PB and thank you for the post. It helped me.

Thank you very much!

The authors used GRADE to rate their own results and it scored "very low". If I understood it correctly, it means that the certainty that their final conclusions are correct is "very low". Isn't it? I'm also trying to find something to put my mind at ease about eating sat fats, as I've recently...

Thank you for the explanation! I'm trying to keep 20-50g. I had spinach in the evening and a small handful of nuts at noon. The 50g is for special days when I don't have a lot of choice available.

It's a study with very few subjects, but I've learned a lot reading it. Mainly the thing by the end, that tg/hdl is a predictor for insulin resistance. I knew it to be a predictor for CVD, but not insulin resistance. Sadly, I think I'm an outlier. Tg/hdl=0.97, but a recent FBG of 102 mg/dl.

Hello, I'm super new to it and I have a few questions. I was hungry and went to the supermarket to find an easy keto food for on the go breakfast. I looked at the labels and found quality ham with less than 1g carb on the label. My question: is ham really keto friendly? If a food has no...

I've seen this, but what makes him an expert? I'm just wondering. He's a doctor, but this could simply mean he has a doctorate. In whatever. Please, I don't mean to be disrespectful, I'm just being cautious, because there's everything and its contrary on the internet, and so many people...

If your sugar was below 100, how did you get to know you're prediabetic? I've read in the book The diabetes code that in the morning you may have a release of glucose from your own body. But your insulin would be low. If I understood it correctly: High BG AND high Insulin: pre/diabetes High...

The problem is that I was almost exclusively plant based and it got me to the 102. I'm looking for something to take me to a better place, now. Could you share the name of a book I could read, one you'd recommend? Thank you in advance!

Thank you for helping! I'm very used to having only one meal a day. I'm sure I can fast for a day without much trouble. Skipping one meal, or two, I already do. The 1 1/2 day should be ok.

Thank you for helping! Can you tell me what happened since your 103? What did you do? Is your BG normal now? Thank you for sharing! Edit: I've just found your thread on the Soapbox. I'll read it to find answers to my questions. I have only read the first post till now, but Ill read the rest...

I'm happy for you your BG is below 100! I've seen it is consistently so. What did you do to revert your prediabetes? Thank you for sharing! I don't have a monitor yet. About a week ago, I've got a 102 from a fasting blood glucose test I've done at a hospital. I'm informing myself and going low...

It is! But I've been reading a good book today that explained the whole thing. I'll read the papers it cited to help with my psychological blockage, but I'm decided to leap over to the other side. Low fat put me where I am. I've done the exercising since childhood. I've kept my weight in...

Thank you for helping! After what I've read today, I'm quite sad I've taken so long to try. Perhaps this unfortunate reading of 102 will end up being the beginning of a healthier me. I feel a bit better, with hope that I can do something.

Thank you, will do. Today, I've got my hands on The Diabetes Code and read most of it, skipping the parts I thought I could read later. I've decided to add intermittent fasting to what I'm doing to use all I know of that can help me. I'm not sure how I'll do it, but I'm thinking of doing the...

Wow! Thank you for sharing! You've reverted non alcoholic fatty liver! I'm so happy for you! Another story of hope! On day one, I went down to 20g. I didn't find it particular difficult, but perhaps it was just me being moved by fear. I'll do anything in my power to lower my blood sugar. It's...

It wasn't a home monitor. It was at a hospital. But I hear you. When I'm back home, I'll ask my doctor for detailed exams. Thank you for helping!
