[QUOTE="poohtiggy, post: 912098, member: 130077"] Hello and welcome to the forum. At the moment Lidl high protein low carb rolls seem to be the favourite, I haven't tried them as don't have a Lidl store but a caution before you try. Have you got a meter to test your levels? It's the most important thing for you to have as it will show you which foods are safe for you to eat. Your GP proberbly won't give you one as the nhs has cut back on issueing them for type 2 (as we don't need to test) but it's the only way to be sure of which foods spike you. The most popular on here is the Codefree available from Home Health online they also sell the testing strips and are cheaper than elsewhere. A meter will cost £12.99 and strips are about 5.99 for 50 You also need to ditch the high carbs of bread potatoes pasta and rice, have a look at past forums on low carb high fat or lchf, you will find lots of recipes here and most importantly guidance, help and friendship. You have maybe been told to carry on eating carbs at every meal, eat lots of fruit etc. Read the earlier posts and you will find that it's best to avoid the nhs advice, follow this forum and the suggestions, you will lose weight, lower your levels and soon be in control of your diabetes. Daisy 1 will soon contact you with some good advice read it all then ask questions lots of them, the people here will always have an answer and you will get all the help you need [/QUOTE]
