[QUOTE="Loobles, post: 648219, member: 119208"] I agree that I wouldn't call 57 good. However, ask your doctor why they're not encouraging you to get below 48? Or really, into the non-diabetic range. My argument to my GP (when she said my prediabetic levels were fine) was that if she couldn't guarantee that no damage was being done with those levels, then it was too high. I've known people start with complications when only just on the diabetic zone, and those complications don't just start overnight, which tells me they can start with prediabetic blood levels. Once I said that, I was referred straight to the hospital diabetic clinic...mainly to get rid of me I think :bag: Your feelings about food sound very similar to my own and I can certainly sense your frustration. You've been given some good advice here and I don't think I can really go beyond that; however, if you'd like to talk to me at any time, you're welcome to do so. [/QUOTE]
