[QUOTE="Patty80, post: 2638223, member: 560679"] Diagnosed with prediabetes 3yrs ago ---HBa1c -4.2' Tried low carb diets with no success --- too complicated and consequently not motivated to persist with them. Bloods checked 6 monthly going up to 4.3. I have no weight problem being underweight , so difficult to put it down to over eating or lack of excercise. My daughter insisted I cut down on SWEET things ,including sweet fruits, dried fruits,biscuits, cakes, drinks etc. And also keep checking the sugar content in the food you buy. Been doing this for @ 1 year, and now find it easy to keep to. I allow myself a few treats like 1 small finger of Kit Kat after lunch and a small piece of fruit with cereal for breakfast, and the occasional dessert. My last reading was 4.0 ! My advice is --dont give up if you find the conventional low carb diet isnt for you. Try cutting down on anything which tastes SWEET. It gets easy when its part of your routine. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
