[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2197137, member: 401801"] Yeah, a "balanced diet" means something different to different people. If you truly are prediabetic, then carbs would be your problem, and cutting those down while upping the fats and keeping protein moderate, well.. That's what's balanced to someone with a diabetic metabolic condition. [URL]https://josekalsbeek.blogspot.com/2019/11/the-nutritional-thingy.html[/URL] would be a jumping off point. But hey, if it's "just" the fasting blood glucose in the morning... Do you use any other medication? Steroids, statins, that sort of thing? Do you sleep poorly, wake often, have a lot of nightmares? Exercise before breakfast? Because those things could indeed drive up a fasting blood glucose: a matter of your liver dumping glucose so you have enough energy to start the day. In any case, getting your diet sorted out will be a a healthy step whichever way you turn it. Just keep in mind that when you make changes, the FBG is the last one to come down, so do be patient and stick with it. [/QUOTE]
