Hi smigger, if you could elaborate a little we may be able to help. For instance what are you eating and what medication are you on? What are your blood sugar levels running at? If this is a pre op visit, when is your operation scheduled for? With help you may be able to reduce your levels by the time your operation is due.

Ok, you know about the Weetabix now. Ham is ok as long as it is not breaded or honey roast.

You need to check the ingredients on the gravy mix.

I had to give up tea, I can't stand milk substitutes. I take double cream in coffee.

Thank you for the info about your food. 3 x Weetabix is equivalent to the total carbs eaten in a day by some low carbers here. I eat low carb ‘porridge’ not real porridge not a grain in sight! It’s from the Diet Dre Website here:
https://www.dietdoctor.com/recipes/keto-coconut-porridge Or something simpler to prepare, Greek yoghurt and berries. Or something savoury perhaps the low carb elements of a full English, that is eggs, bacon, high meat content sausage, mushrooms and a small tomato.
I hope your surgery can go ahead and you have a swift recovery.
