- Being told "you are diabetic, what do you expect?" or "You are stupid or you would be able to control your bloods perfectly!" Hypo unawareness and its consequences!
I am looking for breakfast suggestiins. I generally eat around 40g carbs.
So how many carbs do other people have then? I have no idea what is normal, but I was told I should have carbs for breakfast, lunch and dinner - I rarely eat 3 meals a day because of my small appetite. 40gm (I THINK that is what is in 2 slices of bread according to the label). Lunch is a sandwich when I can eat it, otherwise nothing. Supper, I might have brown pasta, rice, potato, buckwheat ... with some form of meat, chicken or fish and vegetables and always a salad. I try to change it around regularly to prevent boredom. I am curious to know, what do you eat with your eggs, meat or fish or cheese? Do you just eat it plain every day or do you add flavouring? Galja, what nationality are you? Your diet seems similar to the Latvian one. And your name means "meat" in Latvian!
