@pumaguy79 and @cpd54, Intermittent fasting has also helped me tremendously. Diabetes runs in my family also and I have been in the pre-diabetes category most of my adult life. IF was difficult when I first started it but it has become a way of life and pretty easy now. I mostly do the 18/6 and 20/4 fasting, eating window but occasionally will do the 12 or 16 if we have family plans. I started with intermittent fasting in 2020 with just the idea of losing some weight but now have made it a lifestyle change and it's allowed me to keep the weight off.

There is a LCHF Living & Intermittent Fasting Support Group you might find helpful. Here is a list of the discussions available - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/lchf-living-intermittent-fasting/
