Doctor said as long as I eat healthy and stay active and lose weight I should be fine.

I hear fruit, oatmeal, granola bars, whole grains, salads. As is I don't really eat much fast food or deep fries foods. I eat fit & active pouches from aldis. I just really want to prevent getting diabetes.

    According to the CDC, losing 5-10% of body weight and getting at least 150 minutes of exercise per week help prevent diabetes. http://www.cdc.gov/diabetes/prevention/prediabetes.htm Many communities offer diabetes prevention classes to help reach these goals. ~Lynn /Glucerna
