Low carb or ketogenic? What is the difference please?

[Gardengnome]

I've been borderline diabetic for 6 years and for how long before I wonder? The HbA1c has hovered around 43 for the past 2 years and I bought myself a meter. Now I find my fasting finger test is anywhere between 7 and 7.6 mmol/l and I'm increasingly concerned as I think this means I already have progressed into T2? I see the diabetic nurse each year and would like to lower the HbA1c before the next time, I really do not want to be on the diabetic register.
I was never very overweight but 6 years ago did follow the 5-2 diet and have adopted a much healthier woe since then, or so I thought. However although the weight fell off back then and has never returned, I don't need to lose more weight but really need to be serious about low carbing.
Which is the best way to go - the low carb woe on this website, Diet Doctor or a Ketogenic way? I strongly suspect fruit is my downfall and have reined in on most fruit with the exception of grapefruit and oranges and berries of all kinds.
I'd really appreciate some advice that is easy to follow. Many thanks.

Diet doctor differentiate between Ketogenic, Moderate and Liberal as classifications. I like the way they do that. So for example I fit into their “Liberal” category based on carb intake.

This has worked for me.

I dropped from an HbA1c of 41 to 36 quite quickly using the “liberal” approach.

In your shoes I would remove the fruit apart from the berries, whilst limiting blueberries (I cut mine in half and increased raspberries, more bang for buck).

Just say it "Ketogenic", it's like Bionic. Compare that to LCHF, on sound alone Keto.
