My doctor is happy with my blood sugar levels and general health. I avoid sugar and take a lot of exercise. I find my energy levels drop a lot after 3 or 4 hours light exercise (walking). Can you recommend a snack which will keep my blood sugar up without boosting it too quickly?

Yes, losing weight will help. But, A1C is an indicator of glucose in the bloodstream, so to get the best results you need to reduce carbs and exercise to help improve insulin sensitivity. If you do those 2 things consistently, the A1C will lower.

My age is 55 and I wanted to know if losing weight would help? I started a week ago to cut almost all my carbs out and portions.

Sugar/carbs are the same thing. All forms of sugar and carbs – bread, pasta, rice, potatoes, flour, etc – break down to glucose in the bloodstream, some affect your blood sugar quicker. Salt is okay. Honey is still sugar, stevia is okay.

You should take our free 2 week carb course over at our sister site, it will explain everything and lots of people love it https://goodfoodeating.leadpages.co/carb-course/

What i need to know is what things to avoid period. Sugar? How about salt? I see everyone one mention carbs and salt but not so much on sugar. I am a tea drinker and from my understanding that my constant thirst was signs that I was diabetic. I have been using light salt around my house since i was a kid, father worked for Morton salt and brought it home all the time, is that usable for me? I can handle stevia, what about honey? I grill my meats even use a George foreman grill. Any advice would be great thanks.

If you keep your blood sugar well controlled you can live a normal life without meds and being healthy but you will still have diabetes – meaning if you don’t watch what you eat and exercise regularly, your blood sugar could go up again. You will find this info helpful on my sister site https://diabetesmealplans.com/599/newly-diagnosed-type-2-diabetes/

I’m taking Metformin ER 500mg a day. My doctor said if I get my blood sugar down in 3 months, I can stop taking my medicine. Does this mean I will not be diabetic anymore?

I think it tricks our brain because the bowl is still full but it’s smaller. Don’t load up the plates so much. Focus on slowing down while you eat. And try this mindful eating exercise http://goodfoodeating.org/3243

Hope those tips help. :)
