Type 2 diabetes
Good morning sir/madam.
I am newly diagnosed with pre-diabetes. Doctor advised me to take metformine tablet or to reduce 10% of my body weight with walking and exercise.
I started exercise because I don't want to take medicine and tablets.
My weight is 94 kg, height is 172 cms. After 70 days of diet and exercise I reduced 5 kg. Now my weight is 89 kg.(still I didn't take my HBa1c 2nd test).
It is possible to avoid medicine or tablet through out my life?
Can I avoid type 2 diabetes? Without medicine?

You can reverse the diabetes with your life style changes ...
But later stage of your life... you may still get diabetes...
But continue life style changes and prevent it from as far as possible
