Message: <blockquote data-quote="Helen H" data-source="post: 2689553" data-attributes="member: 582871">I was told I was pre-diabetic in November last year.  After doing my own research I came across thus forum and it all made perfect sense to me to cut the carbs.  I admit I went right in at the deep end and went keto - less than 20g carbs/day.  I have lost 2 stone doing this without even trying and generally love this way of eating - I do get the occasional urge for Chinese takeaway - I am still human.  To me it was a no brainer as I had been given a big red warning that my body was struggling and I have the chance to try and halt a full type 2 diagnosis or at least keep it at bay for as long as possible.  As others have said you have options - you need to decide what is right for you.  Just don’t be scared of giving up most carbs - I was - and now I wonder why I was as I very rarely want them.  Good luck with whatever way you decide to try and tackle this.</blockquote>
