    Carbs are limited on ww anyway, higher points but I don't find that bread etc affects my blood sugars tbh, baked beans did when I last ate those tho, I'm happy with what I am eating as blood sugars are down

    Diagnosed Type 2 - Tablets And Overwhelmed

    Not everyone struggles with bread etc, i had seed toast for breakfast, ham salad for lunch with berries and greek yogurt then fajitas for tea, a juicy pear, mango and raspberries and my blood sugar is lower than it was yesterday, i dont find that bread is a problem with blood sugars. What i will...

    Just discussed this with one of the GPs and it's difficult to lower sugars but also not too much red meat and so on-basically a little of everything is better! But the increase of fats such as butter and cream he wasn't to keen on from a cholesterol point of view! All a catch 22 in my opinion

    I have just been to a cancer conference and have info in front of me saying not too eat too much red meat as they increase the bowel cancer and prostate cancer!!!

    Is this too high?

    SW and WW are both good as they encourage cooking from scratch and avoiding processed foods
