    I apologize. here are by results. Its in spanish, hope it wont confuse you more.
    So the first upper two are Glucose and Insulin in a fasted state and the bottom two are 2 hours after breakfast.

    By the way Gixxer, thanks to have chimed in!

    Yes, Glucose looks good but the strange thing is that Insulin 2 hours after breakfast is on the low side? Why is that?
    And what should i do?

    did you work out or exercise after breakfast?
    Also i would be more concerned if it was high then on low side

    I had 4 scarmblede egg whites and 3 sugger free oatmeal pancakes with suggar free syrup and jelly.

    did you work out or exercise after breakfast?

    I did not exercise after breakfast. Is insulin low after breakfast?


    Also i would be more concerned if it was high then on low side

    So in my case low Insulin aint all that bad then?

    carbs are what are mostly going to effect your glucose levels. And the oatmeal is going to raise you blood sugar slowly.

    personally i wouldnt be concerend with this one test.

    If you are worried ask for an a1c test. Thats a 3 month average, Gives a better idea whats going on then 1 quick snapshot in time

    What is a 1c Test exactly? And I will supplement with Chromium as well knowing and trusting Austinite on his knowledge on this specific supplement.

    This is what Austinite posted a while ago.

    Chromium:

    We all have cravings, especially for starchy foods and sweets. Acting on these cravings above moderation raises insulin levels. That's a surefire way to increase fat cell size. Couple that with a chromium deficiency and you can pretty much forget about fat loss. Unless you burn an astronomical amount of calories daily (most of us don't), you'll gain fat and even potentially become a diabetic. Chromium can and will balance insulin levels and inevitably leading to a smaller fat cell. The insulin-sensitivity-regulating mineral will help redirect your appetite away from sweets and starches because you're finally balanced and able to properly process and metabolize sweet foods, starches, etc....

    Chromium is also a key player in energy. Almost everyone on earth complains of fatigue, one of the main side effects of a deficient body. That will help add more minutes on the treadmill.

    Warning: Consult with your doctor if you are diabetic before supplementing with Chromium.

    Well I ended in the hospital from Thursday trough today. I had Blood drawn to find the cuase.
    My glucose levels were very high. I was diagnosed with Pre diabetes.
    So my diet has to be changed. No wonder my weight never changed , not even with diet and cardio.
    Well, any tips people?
