My husband has T2 and although he is taking metformin the dr has told him to lose weight and change his diet (something I have been saying for a while). He needs to lose 3 stone in a year but the dr didn't give him any advice on what he should/shouldn't be eating.
I'm having a nightmare of a time trying to get him to stay on the straight and narrow, he permanently says he's hungry and he eats anything there is around (including lots of sweet stuff he also loves bread. He only eats veg if it's smothered in gravy or some other kind of sauce that I'm also sure must not be good for him.
Any ideas would be good as lowering his food intake is really difficult as once I go to bed on a night time he raids the cupboards.
