As per title I would really appreciate some advice, I am really worried. I was diagnosed as prediabetic 6 years ago, I found this website, bought a meter and found what raised my blood sugar, which turned out to be carbs and have kept my levels normal ever since. My last hba1c was 32, my bmi is...

No judgement in my statement, just stating how I feel, as I said. And as this is a forum for support can I not say how I honestly feel. With my blood sugars rising despite strict low carbing I would truly love to be able to try the newcastle diet, at the moment I am pretty hacked off with...

Yes and is a real pain! I ran when diagnosed as pre diabetic and my blood sugar rose when I ran. Had to give up running through constant injuries, now just walk 5 miles a day. My bmi is 19 and I find it hard to maintain this without raising my blood. So I feel your frustration! And we are not...

I like xylitol and prefer it to stevia. I find it cheapest from amazon.

Well done on your great result. However I would try to avoid going too high on occasions, if it were me, obviously easier said than done if it's not the same thing spiking you.

Oh you are near Sennen Cove, you must drive there the beach is amazing particularly if the sun is shining. We rent a cottage there most years, there is a pub there which does great food, fresh fish, salads etc great for low carbing, also there is a little cafe on the waterfront which does nice...

Oh thanks for the tip about Lidl I use a lot of garlic and it is very fiddly peeling all the cloves.

No I llow carbed quite strictly and my blood sugar normalized however my ldl and triglycerides went up, my hdl did as well but my triglycerides were still within the normal boundaries but increased quite considerably, haven't time to look up the figures now but I think went from 0.6 to over 1, I...

I use sterols and they have reduced my cholesterol. I low carb and found it upped my triglycerides and ldl cholesterol.

6.5 this morning:( As a prediabetic, low carber with a bmi of 19 pretty hacked off with that!!

Bacon roll omg I am sadly excited at getting my hands on one of these rolls!!

I am desperate to join the gang, no freezer at the moment so not worth going out of my way to get just one roll, however when my new kitchen is finished I'm going to go roll hunting! I am so looking forward to a cheese and onion roll!

I find low carbing works for me. It is as simple as getting a meter and seeing what effects various food has on your blood sugar. Some people can tolerate more carbs than others. I aim for normal blood sugar levels to avoid diabetic complications.

6 not my best, but out for indian last night and a few more carbs than usual.

UOTE="Croc, post: 925292, member: 166824"]What I want to know is why I've not lost an ounce doing LCHF. I've not cut out carbs completely but I've reduced significantly to a level I can easily live with and nothing. Im getting nice BS readings on the whole but no weight loss. I would cut down...

5.4 happy with this. I had a 9pm snack of almonds, this seems to bring my readings down.

6.3, not happy with that. Three potential causes:- Taken 2 hours later this morning, but I had lie in not up and about, curry out last night, had a few more carbs than normal, but literally one very small onion bhajii and small spoonful chickpea dish, thirdly I am on antibiotics for a uti...
