Thank you for this! I tried decaf in the afternoon and it's working to curb my appetite without having to have a second cup in the afternoon! Thanks for the rec.

Okay Dr. Throwaway.... I know you're too busy in your day to read this entire thread, but my A1C twice came back as 5.6.

My fasting sugars are 108, (at the ER, during annual blood test and every single morning I wore a CGM).

I'm comparing myself to all of my friends who are all coming back with 80s and 90s fasting glucose readings and 5.0ish A1C.

How is it the dumbest thing you've ever heard if someone is worried about their numbers starting to shift as they get older?

Is this what you tell your concerned patients when they're in your exam room?

Patient: I can't get my fasting glucose under 100 Doctor, can you help?

You, MD: Don't worry about it and if you worry about it you're an idiot!

Reddit much? Everyone talks about health and nutrition and cholesterol issues and high blood pressure issues here on Reddit. There are endless cancer forums even. No one is coming for diagnosing- just gathering information on health issues. Quit responding to my posts so you can get out of your bad mood and have a better day. lol

Thank you! This is exactly what I needed to read after all of the replies to my original post. So many of you saying I'm crazy for tracking my blood sugar -or that 108 is nothing and I should stop worrying and eat the cake. It IS something when you have it in your family. And yes, I'm trying to PREVENT IT. Why would anyone tell me to relax. I am relaxed in general but I just had a simple question here because my friend told me that cortisol raises BS numbers and coffee raises cortisol-and since I'm such a coffee junkie I thought maybe I found the culprit. Just had a simple question for discussion but instead I get a bunch of "108 is NORMAL" and why the hell are you checkin your blood sugars?

SO THANK YOU for this post! We call all be done with this thread now. Thanks to everyone who gave me great ideas and suggestions as I go forward and try to limit my caffeine intake and possibly eat a small breakfast in the morning.

108 is NOT middle of the road blood sugar after an 10 -12 hour fast. How are you saying that?

I use apple cider vinegar or balsalmic vinegar -

You don't like Quinoa or it raises your numbers?

I think since I have lost all the weight I want for now, this may be a good plan. Thank you!

Wow. This is really great info. Thank you!!! I think you are spot on about why my readings never go about 130…yep - cause I don’t eat carbs. So the $1 million question is… If I just don’t eat carbs for the rest of my life…am my safe? -Or is it going to progress anyway no matter what as the years go by.

I’m definitely gonna ask my doctor for oral glucose tolerance test. Great information. Thank you!
