Pre diabetic - any advice

Hi everyone

I am feeling really miserable. I have been putting on weight for ages and I'm now huge and feel terrible about myself. I have tried so many diets and despite feeling really terrible and being desperate to lose weight I just seem to have no motivation.

I have recently been told I am pre diabetic following a test for something else at my doctors. I have been told that I am being referred to a diabetes prevention programme but this could take a month or so and I haven't been told anything else. I don't know what I should be eating, what I should be avoiding, what diets are the best to follow....

Does anyone have any suggestions or advice??

xx

Low carb high fat diet can reverse type 2 diabetes. Diet doctor has a lot of great information.

This is another good resource if you listen to podcasts. Sorry about your diagnosis and I hope that these show that there is something you can do.

A year ago my husband was told he had type 2 diabetes, straight onto metformin. I started him on the low carb high fat diet straight away. Last November, he stopped metformin, he has lost a huge amount of weight, used to be in 4 xl clothes , and they were tight. Now he is in xl clothes and they are loose. Try Diabetes UK website for great info and help.

Please read.Dr Jason Fungs The Obesity Code. Even If you're type 2 you can reverse it. There are plenty of YT Videos where he explains this. idmprogram.com/reverse-type-2-diabetes-the-quick-start-guide/
