Thanks for the reply! I really appreciate it.
I don't have excess body fat and I'm not always that hungry, just decent, I guess.

Hello guys,
Since I've been diagnosed with prediabetes (fasting blood sugar level of 6.1), I pay attention to what I eat and what I don't eat. For breakfast I eat mostly cheese with few almonds or some eggs. I only drink water, black coffee and tea (without sugar or honey). Once every three...

My father is not overweight and no one from his side of the family has diabetes. He is literally the only guy who has it, unfortunately. I don't have a meter, because I try to find out which meter is the most accurate one. I read somewhere that the outcome of meters can 15 % differ from the real...
