Check out http://www.dlife.com/. It's designed for diabetics, but is also great for prediabetics and/or folks like you who just don't want to go down that path0

To help lower your chances of diabetes AND numerous other chronic health conditions:
1.) Maintain a healthy body weight
2.) Eat a nutritionally balanced diet (if you have any deficiencies these should be addressed)
3.) maintain an active lifestyle. The guideline suggests either 5 days a week of 30 minutes moderate intensity exercise like jogging or brisk walking totaling a minimum of 150 minutes -or- 3 days a week of 25 minutes vigorous exercise such as running totaling 75 minutes per week.
Your chances for most chronic diseases will be significantly lowered.
If you have pre-diabetes, hypo or hyper glycemia, or any current blood sugar issues you should see your physician and consult with them on your specific approach.0
