For snacks I have nuts, unsweetened soya yoghurt, 90% chocolate.I was lucky enough to be spotted at a prediabetic level, but I was very, very strict with my diet.But although my BG's and  hba1c is  'normal' now, I am not cured my fastings can still be in the prediabetic range if I have say half a garlic naan as a treat!</blockquote>
