    How to tolerate hunger

    Thanks for informing me about this other hormone Amylin deficiency, another hormone deficiency to my hypothyroid! Lovely! I don't know how I am going to deal with all this when it turns into LADA-T1. I am watching all kinds of You Tube videos with various doctors and diabetes, and I am just...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Wow! This looks delish. I love brussel sprouts although my hypothyroidsm does not allow too much of it. That's why I feel defeated, not only do I have to watch what I eat for the pre-diabetes, but also for the darn hypothyroid, then protein intake for the weak kidneys. Anyway, I could eat more...

    Fasting blood sugar....pre-diabetes

    Hello, thank you for your kind response. I used to eat ALOT of fruits. Thought was doing myself good as they say to get at least 5 servings minimum of fruits daily. but I guess they weren't talking about those who were pre-diabetic or diabetic! I loved a whole honeycrisp apple, pears...

    Keto supper suggestions

    Struggling with hunger all the time! Pre-diabetic and missing all the carbs I used to eat, from quinoa, oats, gluten-free breads and pasta and loads of fruit! I can't eat too many eggs or red meat, just fish and chicken, just 1 slice of daily low-carb bread. Been eating mushrooms, veggies...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Hi everyone, Pre-diabetic diagnosed a few months ago.. not obese, so they call it skinny fat? (Belly area).

    Fasting blood sugar....pre-diabetes

    Hi thank you so much for replying. Doing those extra tests are really not an issue, but just wanted to know if it would indicate anything or it would be useless like too soon to tell? My mother at 71 years has T1 on insulin for over 30+ years (although they said is was LADA to begin with?)...

    Fasting blood sugar....pre-diabetes

    Hi all, I was diagnosed pre-diabetic a few months ago and have been depressed since. GP told me to limit carbs and only 2 fruits a day (my weakness!). I asked him if I should be checking my sugars with blood monitor and he said no, not yet, since you are not diabetic?! Sending me to check my...

    Never feeling hungry

    Hi, thank you for your response. That was my first meal of the day. I limit carbs, but my veggie portions look huge on my plate, and that whole can of tuna can't be good to have in just one seating. I also had fatty seed butter on that low carb toast with a handful of pumpkin seeds too with a...

    Never feeling hungry

    Hi, I wish I was more like you. Instead, I am ALWAYS hungry even after consuming a huge meal. I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic in June. Was told to limit carbs and eat only 2 fruits a day instead of a whole bunch that I used to love. So, no more beans, sweet potatoes, quinoa, gluten-free bread...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Hi, I am missing hot oatmeal/cereal breakfasts since diagnosed prediabetic. Could you please give me your coconut "porridge" recipe you have every morning? It's amazing that you are not hungry by lunchtime. I am starving all the time and I have no discipline when it comes to portion control...

    Hello, sorry I have been away from this post. Am still struggling with depression and anxiety with prediabetes. It's amazing, everyone here sounds so positive but I am alone and scared. I went on You Tube to watch Jay Sampat and his experience with T1 diabetes and his positive energy, but then...

    Hello That's super how you don't crave anything carbs anymore. I love healthy carbs. I never ate sweets, no chocolate, no desserts. Even at birthday parties, I avoided eating cake! Always conscious about the refined sugars in them knowing that mom is diabetic & too afraid that I would be one...

    Thank you for your reply. I really appreciate your feedback and how well you are coping. That's amazing. I don't think I can even have such a positive outlook on life. I do take synthroid for the hypo but I have to take it on an empty stomach & wait hours before I can eat, that's lovely for the...

    Hi again, My mother had a teleconference with her endo today, reviewing her bloods. She had ordered a c-peptide test and it showed that levels were very low so it confirmed that my mother had LADA or T1.5 as she was diagnosed only as an adult at 27 years old after giving birth to my brother and...

    Thank you for your kind reply & to help me stay positive throughout all this. I just feel defeated. I love good food and I worked out most of my life to be able to enjoy fine dining as the reward. Now I feel that there is no point now. And I am so limited to what I can eat because of all the...
