[QUOTE="Jenny39579, post: 569680, member: 113878"] I have found all my life to be drawn to carbohydrates. I love meat, but I would swap a nice juicy steak for just the chips any day. Also, the amount of meat that I needed to replace the carbohydrate was starting to become expensive, and as I was on a budget at the time, I was finding myself struggling financially, but obviously I still needed to eat healthily. I missed carbohydrate, particularly bread. So I got myself online to get advice about healthy foods that would fill me up but keep my blood sugar ticking over nicely. And read about high fibre foods, and although fibre is carbohydrate, I felt full up for longer, and less inclined to reach for the crisps throughout the meal. I also bought a book about low gi and low gl foods. I was pleased as punch that nuts, some beans and seeds are not only healthy sources of fat that can bring down your bad cholesterol, but it was something I could snack on, or add to salads to make them more exciting. But Yeah, I have to admit, I used to get real bad headaches if I missed out on bread, potatoes etc. Even cow's milk was raising my blood sugar. I don't know, maybe it's just the way my body is. We're all different. :):) Sent from the [url=http://www.diabetes.co.uk/app/?utm_source=sig&utm_medium=txt&utm_campaign=appsig]Diabetes Forum App[/url] [/QUOTE]
