Last March after getting my test results I discovered I was no longer borderline I now have type 2 diabetes. This is the scare I needed. I cut out refined sugar completely, got on the treadmill every day starting 10 mind on 4 km per hour. I now do 50 mind on 5.5 kph with an incline of 10.
I purchased the meter with the test strips and lancets and tested before and after exercise results. Yesterday I skipped the treadmill and thoroughly spring cleaned my apartment - a full days work, for lunch I had grilled chicken breastfeeding with salad. Carried on with the housework on hands and knees washing, drying, polishing and buffing parquet floors (lliving room, dining room and bedrooms. Blood test was the lowest it's been so far 107 and I am not taking any med.
When diagnosed my fasting blood glucose was 174 (rreference range 60 -100)
Post prandial was 205 (reference range 140 - 200)
Now before breakfast still high 135 and after breakfast/eexercise 105
I forgot to say I am 65 and live in Egypt, have under active thyroid so usually I sleep a lot. That's also an improvement. Today I feel 20 years younger, more energy and I feel happy.
