Hi I am a 29 yr old and overweight female ( around 25Kgs overweight) and since past 1.5 yrs my blood sugar is higher than normal usually around 135. I notice when i do vigorous exercise once a day (like running/gym/swimming) my fasting sugar for those days becomes around 110 without any medicine.
Do i already have diabetes or can i control this at my age with exercise + diet?

U have diabetes. Pl confirm by doing a hba1c test.
Since the diabetes is of recent onset we may control with diet and exercise. I prefer to give medicines for 3 months and while guiding them to lose 10% of their body weight in 3 months. Often we are able to cause remission of the diabetes. But the diet and other lifestyle changes have to be continued lifelong.
Hii.. From Your case history I understood you are definitely overweight and your concern is are u really diabetic.. Your Fasting sugar is 110 that suggest you have impaired fasting glucose that is Prediabetes stage... When a person is in this stage chances of progressing to diabetes is around 20 to 30 percent in next few years... Top on that you are overweight so chances of progressing to diabetes are high if u don't take measures.. One third ppl revert to normal with diet and wt loss to normal..
U need to get on good wt reduction diet low calories (500 kcl Less than existed) for that take diet rich in proteins and fibres, less carbs and oil... Engage yourself in good physical exercise to shed few kilos... Monitor your FBS, PLBS and Hb1Ac every 3 to 6 monthly....!! All the best
