    Hi everyone. I’m 63 and type 2 diabetes. I have been on Trulicity injecti once a week and have managed to reduce my nova rapid insulin by more than half. Have now got to change my Levemir for a longer acting insulin, I think it’s called Semglee…. Also need to cut my carbs a bit more……any ideas……?

    I think there is a low carb section on this site somewhere. Also a low carb recipe section. Depends how low carb you want to go. There is the keto diet for example which is fairly extreme. One or two suggestions from me would be to substitute rice with cauliflower rice. This can also be roasted in the oven and mixed with spices and seeds etc. Also substitute potato mash with mashed swede, carrot, turnip.

    Could use sweet potato but that has more carbs. If you can't not have a take away, have only half portion of rice or none if possible. Don't keep cakes or biscuits in the house. Go for a sandwich as opposed to a pie.
