Hi Tanya, welcome to the forum
Here is my food programme which I have cut and pasted from elsewhere, written by me though:
(I count carbs)
1 multivitamin tab, Lutein, bilberry, and Flaxseed oil for retinas
Breakfast : full fat Total Greek yoghurt with sweetner. coffee with very little cream
Lunch: meat or fish, veg (not always don't eat my 5 a day - naughty!), carby food from list below, 2%fat Total Greek yoghurt:. Coffee
Supper: meat (nearly always cold) , usually brown bread roll, another 2% Total Greek yoghurt.
Very occasional treat of raspberries or strawberries with cream and I cheat and don't count the carbs! Apparently anything ending in 'berry' is OK for BG.
No snacks!
No alcohol. Except for a small glass of red wine once a day which is very good for you.
Drink light lemonade and label says it contains no carbs.
I trim fat off meat as I don't like it.
Here are the portion sizes and calculations of numbers of carbs. Carb numbers are taken from what is marked on the packet.
Full fat Joghurt 5.4g carb
2% fat joghurt 6.5g carb
Brown bread roll (62g) 30 g carb
Rice (30g) 23g carb
Rosti potatoes(65g) 11 gm carb
Gratin potatoes one small round 15g carb
Oven chips (60g) 16g carb
Pasta(60g) 36g carb
Polenta(20g) 23g carb
Ravioli(90g includes filling) 29g carb
Roast potatoes(50g) 12g carbs
Cordon bleu(slice veal with breadcrumbs)13.5g carbs
Flageolet beans (65g) 5g carbs.
No guarantees as to accuracy of carb values. I estimate this to make my day's carbs as between 50g and 90g carbs.
Hope this is useful.
By the way I am Type 2.
Would be interested to hear anyone's comments, especially if I am going wrong anywhere :shock:
Edit: have only just noticed this is in the low-carb forum. This is probably too high carb for you.
