Help! I am almost 60 years old and have discovered I am pre diabetic. I am overweight and am dealing with portion control, no sugar and exercise. Any tips for sugar free snacks? I've been making homemade candy using coconut oil, cocoa and stevia which is ok but I am eating too much of that:) Thanks for your support!

What else are you eating besides the sugar free stuff? Have you looked into the ketogenic diet? I hear a lot of people getting off diabetic prescriptions on that diet. I'm not saying it will or will not work for you, but it's a possibility.1
