Signs and Symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes Read Article...

@A DiabetesTeam Member By adopting a healthy lifestyle (healthy weight, physical activity, healthy diet) I am hoping to be able to turn my pre-diabetes around. So far, I have lost 40 pounds, begun exercising and have lowered both my A1C and blood pressure. However, I recently noticed that my blood glucose is not well controlled and that I am having lows (which means I am also having spikes). :( So I am now learning how to keep tight control over my blood glucose, by closely monitoring what and when I eat. So, even with my weight loss, I still can't over-eat, still can't eat too many high carbs, or eat too much at one meal without spiking my glucose and doing damage. I have been making lifestyle changes for a year now and am ever so happy with the "new" me. But I'm not certain yet that I will be able to really "reverse" my pre-diabetes. I do know some can though. Time will tell. Good luck-it appears to me that controlling it is the most important thing.

The proverbial question.

Honestly Stanley, you might have better luck by finding a genie bottle and rub it three times!! (If Barbara Eden comes out…Let us know…

You can watch my words, mitigate (lessen) the effects of diabetes but reverse….(Remember that genie bottle….
