Please people!! get off the drugs!!! if its Pre Type 2 and controllable. diet and excercise work ten times better than the drugs. and when you say you made changes those are great, but NO flour at all, and that means shabbos, (until your sugar is really stabalized) take a bite of matza. and no sweet potatoes either. when you get ALL sugar out of your system (even fruit) you can begin to rebound. You can have berries and NO SPLENDA not ever. not today, not a bit, not a taste, it is terrible for you. (get stevia or raw honey. Raw Honey should be your sweetener of choice. and yes you dont wnat to starve so you have to FEED your body with fats, yes you heard me right, fats. Meat and chicken and fish, cooked in good old fashioned shmaltz (made yoruself not with BHT) and olive oil. the fats keep you satieated. dairy fats such as whole milk, cheese and cream, and the biggest fix for prediabetics is to BUILD MUSCLE> you might be wroking out and doing all the wrong things. you need to specifically BUILD MUSCLE> thats your best defense in my opinion. and brisk walking can bring your sugar down faster and better than any drug. (im speaking about metabolic related pre diabetic type 2) now if you have a heridetary predispositon to type 2 you may have more of a battle ahead of you. this advice is if you got your own self into this mess by your food choices. (yes I am one of you!! not judging)
