My story with blood sugar.

I have a life history of weight control challenges.

I was prediabetic before Doctors called it that and made a big issue out of my obvious problems.

I looked in the mirror. I told myself that I had been lying to myself all my life. Sugar is bad for me and always was.

I quit sugar- wemt to KETO-light before it was called KETO.

My blood sugar quit being an issue and my weight became manageable. That was 20 years ago.

There you go. Do what you think is right. I wouldn’t take medication in an effort to hang on to sweets in my diet that were harming my health.

Same with my husband except it was 6-7 years ago.

His doc tests his blood every 6 months and everything still looks great. Even his cholesterol came down, which before he hadn’t been able to do even with meds.

His doc was adamant against keto at the time. After about 2 years of checkups and bloodwork, now supports his choice. Except for the Covid vax which caused us to ultimately leave that GP. New doc is a proponent of keto
