Thanks for the reply! I really appreciate it.It certainly appears very low carb and as such if you maintain it there’s not a huge amount of additional changes to be made. There doesn’t seem to be much fat there to replace the carbs for energy and satiety. I would think it’s quite possible you are in ketosis and as such burning fat for energy. Do you have excess body fat to be used? Are you hungry?
There are keto bread alternatives you can bake (many recipes online), none that I personally find a good alternative and too much hassle if I’m honest. A few strawberries now and again are fine, as are raspberries and blueberries.
I plan to buy one, but I'm still not sure which one is the most accurate one.It looks very healthy to me, as long as you are feeling well on it. Yes, you can eat a few strawberries a few times a week (or raspberries), delicious with double cream or a full fat plain yogurt.
Are you going to buy a meter? It will help you decide whether your food choices are good, bad, or indifferent.
You could try adding meats or leftovers (or just more eggs cream and cheese) for breakfastThanks for the reply! I really appreciate it.
I don't have excess body fat and I'm not always that hungry, just decent, I guess.
I only struggle with breakfast, because before my diagnosis, I used to eat a lot of breakfast that would include bread. I experience some sort of 'bread-anxiety' now.
None are perfect, they all have a tolerated error margin. It’s the overall picture and trends as opposed to decimal places that matter. Cost of strips is probably the biggest considerationI plan to buy one, but I'm still not sure which one is the most accurate one.

Hi. This looks like a balanced low carb diet too me (interested in but not qualified as a dietician). I really hope you are enjoying eating this way. I know how much I still miss bread and to be honest, I don't find substitutes helpful as it just makes me crave those 'vehicle' foods (bread, crackers). Stawberries have loads of vitamin C and are low in sugar, however if you are finding yourself doing fridge 'fly pasts' that could spike your sugars.Hello guys,
Since I've been diagnosed with prediabetes (fasting blood sugar level of 6.1), I pay attention to what I eat and what I don't eat. For breakfast I eat mostly cheese with few almonds or some eggs. I only drink water, black coffee and tea (without sugar or honey). Once every three weeks I drink diet cola. Obviously I cut candy, chocolate, chips, cookies, ice cream, bread, rice, pasta, porridge, rice and most fruits out of my diet. I made a routine regarding supper.
On Mondays: for supper I eat broccoli or green beans with fish and salad (the salad contains spinachs, lettuces, cucumbers, tomatoes, paprika and coriander).
On Tuesdays: for supper I eat baked aubergines with yoghurt.
On Wednesdays: for supper I eat shurwa (Afghan soup, it contains beef, olive oil, tomatoes, spinaches, bit of salt and coriander). The original recipe is with carrots, potatoes and chick peas, but I cut those out for obvious reasons.
On Thursdays: for supper I eat omelettes (sometimes with coriander) and salad.
On Fridays: for supper I eat fish with green beans or broccoli and yoghurt.
On Saturdays: for supper I eat baked eggs (sometimes with coriander) and salad.
On Sundays: for supper I eat oven baked chicken and salad.
Currently I don't have a blood glucose meter, but do you think my routine is healthy from a (pre)diabetic point of view?
And I also have 2 other questions. Is there alternative for bread? Can I eat few strawberries once a week?
