and take a diet plan.

There is no such thing as a diabetic or even a prediabetic diet. The healthy diet is the same for everyone. The fact is though that following a healthy diet is much more important for a diabetic than others.

Most doctors will refer their patients to a dietitian or diabetes counseling which will include diet as a major topic. Stay away from fads including the Atkins diet. loose weight if necessary. Eat red meat only two or three times a week. Fish is good as well as fruits and vegetables. Whole grains are desirable. Stay away from cakes, candy and certain types of fat. A dietitian can gear a diet especially for a particular person.

Generally, a diet that focuses on eating natural whole foods and one that focuses on fresh fruits and vegetables would help.

Begin by cutting out all white sugar. Then go to all white flour, white rice, white pasta and replace these items w/ their whole and unrefined cousins. Eliminate ALL drugs and alcohol at the same time. For a while, measure everything, following portion sizes. You’ll be amazed at how much you’ve been overeating!!! Stop buying canned and packaged things. If you want sweets, my rule is you have to bake ‘em, or you can’t eat ‘em, and they have to be made w/ fertile eggs, whole grain flours and seeds, organic fruit and all natural ingredients. I don’t bake much anymore, as my sweet tooth is disappearing. Pretty much the only cans I have in my cupboards are: Canned tomatoes, tuna, canned beans like chick peas, kidney beans, cannellini, black olives, coconut milk for Thai cooking, baking powder and soda, spices, extracts, the occasional can of soup or turkey chili, and canned French cut green beans and corn for use in a pinch. I also have pesto, but the traditional canned green basil pesto and dried tomato as well, and canned salmon, anchovies, mackeral and sardines. That’s about it. Eliminate red meat for a good long while, replace that w/ fish if you like it. Otherwise, eat more chicken and other types of poultry. Avoid deep-fried stuff like the plague. Avoid fast food like the plague as well. It’ll kill you. Eat salad twice a day, especially in the warm weather. Eat soup and/or a sandwich in the cold weather. NEVER skip breakfast.

I have diabetes on both sides of my family. I have raised two children as a single mother for the last 19 years. I state that I got diabetes from stress. I would advise you to closely examine your life’s stressors, and to eliminate or transform as many of those as humanly possible. They’ll kill you, too. Sometimes diabetes is literally an issue of life not being sweet enough. Find the sweetness, and keep it in your life. Ask yourself: Will this be important tomorrow, next week, in five years? If the answer is “No!”, let it go or get rid of it.
