Hi. I’ve recently been diagnosed with pre-diabetes. I’m at 6.4 so pretty much reaching that number that will tip me into the diabetic range😬. Does anyone in this group set macros on MFP and if so, what do you allow yourself for carbs? I’ve gained over 25 lbs these part 2 years. (Never had a weight concern before). I think if I get rid of them it will help lower my BS.

    I tried adjusting my goals to the low carb option which updated the macros for carbs and saturated fats. It also asked if I wanted to track complex carbohydrates which I said yes. This means it takes into consideration the amount of fiber I believe. If you figured this out I would love to know! I’m new and also was just told I’m pre diabetic and need to make a change.
