You do not have to remove foods that you like.

Exercise

Exercise is the best way to stop prediabetes for various reasons. First, a fitness regimen might aid you to lose the pounds that raise the risk of prediabetes without extreme dieting. Additionally, when you are working out, your body utilizes more glucose that aids in clearing it out of your blood. Finally, exercise might activate a cell receptor known as GLUT-4 that actually aids in absorbing sugar out of your blood and then moving it into the cells. Weights and cardio both are the exercises that aid in activating the GLUT-4 system.

The American Diabetes Association suggests almost 150 minutes of normal physical activity per week that mostly occurs the average out of 30 minutes that makes five times per week. But you can divide it up also into longer workouts on the days when you are having available time. If you know you will be quite busy exercising on others. If your healthcare provider has medically advising you to lose weight if you are having prediabetes and you do not know where to start (or you have tried each and every diet).
