Diabetologist 's  Response
Dear sir i can understand your concern
the fasting blood sugar between 100-125 is called as impaired fasting blood sugar.
blood sugar more than or equal to 126mg/dl is considered as diabetes.
as you said that you are having belly in my opinion you might be suffering with excess of weight
This excess of weight can led to a condition called insulin resistance and can make your blood sugar to go up
i suggest you to go for exercise and low calorie diet.
