Morning
New to this lovely place and new to testing as of yesterday 24 August.
Readings after meal last night was 15, then 13.7.
After waking this morning it was 9.2
I've just had shredded wheat bitesize and half of a small banana for breakfast and just posted the same on another post on this forum.
I was advised to try protein etc instead as this breakfast could raise my levels, but I can't eat anything savoury for breakfast.
My question is, would there be anything on this forum or would anyone have a weekly menu (as a tested one or as an example) of meals I can try that are low carb please?
I've been advised by dietitian yesterday NOT to do LCHF, so I'm getting very confused and irritated if honest as to whch I follow.
I know how to cook, but since being properly diagnosed, it's as if all sense has disappeared, so I'd be so grateful for a few examples to kick start me.
I don't have a lot of time to trawl the net, so any ideas will be helpful. I don't get in til late each night, and try and do tea from fresh, but I'm stuck now with the low carb and need to feel fuller for longer. A salad and mackerel for lunch doesn't fill me up, that's when I start on the nuts and extra fruit, which is where my damage has occurred.
Thank you soon much
