Low Carb

swaser0816

I am pre-diabetic so I began a low carb diet. I am struggling mainly because I want something crunchy like; chips, cheez-its, goldfish crackers, crackers...for those of you who are experienced I need help. What do you eat to satisfy this craving? I don't want to binge...help please!!

Kale chips, celery dipped in hummus, cucumber chips. It's hard. Good luck!

I've been trying low carb since september.....remember the higher the fiber the lower the net carbs.

Low (not no): rice cakes with hummus or peanut butter, almonds (cinnamon roasted yummy), Thomas high fiber light english muffins, Josephs flax and oat whole wheat pita bread.

It gets easier. There is amazing recipes to help the cravings. This is a T2D for 4 years and have been off meds 100% for 8 months with normal blood/sugar levels and many of the health issues gone (burning feet, bad eye vision)

Tell me what are the symptoms of pre-diabetes. I eat low carb because carbs

1) make me want to sleep
2) make me feel sluggish in the morning and ravenous as well

Diabetes runs in my family and I was borderline gestational diabetic.
