[QUOTE="sanguine, post: 660102, member: 101256"] Hi Amanda, welcome. To add to the above, I can see a few items in your foods that would make my (and most other T2s) blood sugars spike badly - muesli, toast, bread on sandwiches, potatoes, rice, pasta, bananas. Whilst these are the so-called 'healthy diet' recommended by many they are usually not suitable for diabetics. Doesn't really matter if it's 'wholemeal' or not. Carbohydrates are like sugars for us, they are best avoided. Also low fat dairy (or low fat anything) often contains added sugar so full(er) fat varieties are better unless other issues make that less desirable for you. Jack has given you some useful low-carb links, have a good read around and ask any more questions. We're here to help you. [/QUOTE]
