Will is still develop diabetes?

[_marcyy]

im a pre diabetic teen which i found out back in December so my doctor said to watch food intake espiecally unhealthy carbs like bread, candy, etc. and provide more exercise , i exercise almost everyday since i have pe which is an hour everyday, we either play sports , walk around the track and every week run a 15 min mile and bleachers for 15 mins and i walk home to provide more exercise sometimes run on the treadmill or lift some weights i still eat some sugary stuff (i completely cut out soda and hardly ever drink juice , water is all that i drink) but i lessened it a lot more than what i used to eat before i found out i was prediabetic and lets say i eat a piece of chocolate cake i walked it off after so in June i have to go back to my doctors to check my sugar to see if i have diabetes or still on the borderline of it, the thing is i lose weight but then gain it back and lose it and gain back it is those 5 pounds that i lose (im not talking like 20 lbs gained, im only 10-15 pounds overweight) i always lose 5 then gain it back so the real question is will i still get diabetes even if im exercising and trying to eat healthier?

im so fucken scared but its extremely hard being pre diabetic as a teen who are best known for eating junk food. i have a feeling that im already diabetic :(, please comment below and say your opinions , i really need your help.

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this, but you're doing great! Keep at it and you'll continue to improve every day. If you're serious about reducing your risk for diabetes as much as possible though, I'd definitely recommend the book "Dr. Neal Barnard's Program for Preventing and Reversing Diabetes". Dr. Barnard's research has become revolutionary and his diet program has been proven to be more successful and than the typical low carb diet that doctor's have been pushing. The whole idea behind low carb diets for diabetes prevention was started by a man named Dr. David Jenkins who essentially created the glycemic index, which I'm sure you're familiar with. Certain foods spike our insulin, so the theory is that we should only consume foods that spike our insulin the least. Doctor's ran away with this theory and began pushing low carb diets and eating in accordance with the glycemic index, which has become problematic, because in pursuing further research, Dr. Jenkins has actually disproved his own theory. After he created the glycemic index, he went on to do more research and he found that dietary fat inhibits the body's natural insulin from doing its job properly, resulting in high blood sugar. The high blood sugar and ineffective insulin are merely side effects of having too many lipids in the blood stream as a result of consuming too much dietary fat. Dr. Jenkins and Dr. Barnard have gone on the work together on quite a few studies (1) and Dr. Barnard has founded the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine which focuses on disease prevention through lifestyle and diet. I'll add some links you might find helpful :).

I think it's still possible. Some people are just genetically predisposed to certain disorders. You're definitely reducing your risk. Will it ever go away completely? I don't know.

try to substitute the salty for the sugary, in terms of snacking, although carbs are still a problem. But no, there are millions of adult diabetics that still, with the right meds and diet and staying slim, still have happy lives.

Pre diabetes is reversible if you fix your diet and live a more healthy lifestyle.
