I recently found that my baseline blood glucose level is high (potentially pre-diabetic). Takes a long time after a meal to drop below 100mg/L.
I started skipping meals until my glucose level dropped below 100mg/L and that pretty much boils down to one meal per day. Is it a good idea to continue this practice (not eating until your glucose level drops below some threshold value)?
Some online sources claim it could be worse but don’t explain exactly why.
Mmm, I tried stuff like that early on. But with my morning blood sugar, not post meal sugar.
In the end, I decided to play the long game.
I switched to keto (because what you eat really affects blood sugar).
I did IF. After a couple months I switched to ADF (alternate day fasting, 36:12). That helped a lot.
If you want to just eat one meal a day, OMAD, then you could do that. Just keep the carbs in that one meal to 20g.
But, TBH, your morning fasted bg is a better indicator of how your pre-diabetes is going. IMO
