What is your intermittent fasting schedule? I have been trying to fast for 16 hours and eat within an 8-hour window. But even so results in blood sugars after 19 hours have only gotten me down a couple times to 4.8 not lower. It's usually in the 5.2-5.8. Not good. Definitely pre-diabetic. It's so frustrating, I don't even bother checking daily anymore. I heard fasting through Dr Berg, Dr Fung...all for it, gives the pancreas a good break, basically no food, no insulin releases. Starve because that's good for us, but then I have brain fog which is supposed to be the opposite? Then I find I try to get all my nutrients in within the 5-hour eating window, and of course I am starving, and trying to eat well without breaking my fast with sugar spiking foods, then worried that's what causes my bloods to stay elevated after 19 hours? I don't check my glucose all the time. I get too anxious. Just wanted to hear if intermittent fasting works for anyone else re: blood sugars. I basically do one meal a day, which is supper - none of the 3x a day with snacks in-between, and how morning breakfast is the most important meal of the day ****. I avoid all refined carbs, no grains or fruits. Guess the healthy carbs, proteins and fat still cause my sugars to spike and overload. Can't help it, I am starving and have lost weight unintentionally. A1C was 6.6 recently. So upset. i just want to eat healthy foods which i love but feel it's just harming me and leading me straight to diabetes in just a matter of time.
