Husband asking if anybody has found LC biscuits or crackers etc, that don't raise BG by a lot. Any suggestions?

Hubby 8.4, Definitely not happy!

We tried it and it was ok. But we then tried oat milk - which sounds hellish but is actually really nice. Husband used to take 2 sweetex in his tea and now he can do without any. I'm not sure how many carbs it has but I think it's def less than cows milk. The brand I'm getting is Oatly. Makes...

I just wondered if any of you had similar readings and could relate. No matter, we will carry on and find oot eventually TY!:D

We're testing 3 times a day (2hrs after meals) plus first thing, it was just to try and keep things under control after a few months when he lost motivation and let it all slide. Won't matter then, cos surely things are far better than they were. He was hitting 9-10 before when he did bother to...

Husband has done well to get his daily BG readings down to 6-7. This is 3 or 4 readings a day. He's asking what sort of HbA1c that should give him, if anybody knows?

Thanks MrsA2, will look at that. Husband likes cheese, I hate it :meh:

lovinglife Will do - thanks xxx

Fenn We dont like steak :) Husband won't eat flax seed it doesn't agree with him... We hate curry :) Yes forgot lamb mince is good in lamb burgers, could do more of them. Thanks for suggestions! xxx

We're off eating altogether lately as our meals are getting so boring. I'm not a good cook at all, my mum lived on coffee and fags so I never learned and also I have quite bad ME and get very easily tired. So I tend to stick to easy-to-cook meals with no faffing about. I need to find out how...

Reading this out to the husband who was diagnosed in 2008, still diet controlled but not in remission.

7.5 hubby

Husband got his down from 9s and 10s - now 7! :cool:

Husband was the same - as good Scots we were quite happy wading through porridge as long as it was made with salt and water. Now he moans his face off at having to eat bacon & egg or boiled egg! :(

I can't abide almonds either, but for hubby I buy LC bread online and it costs £4.99 per 400g loaf but he enjoys it. Has two slices toast with cheese every night so I reckon it's worth it as it lasts him a while.

I find main meals easy but really miss desserts and cake and even cornflakes!

My hubby had 3 heart attacks then a triple bypass Andy and he says the diabetes is more annoying than the heart. He says the bypass is over and done with and he's ok now (fingers crossed) - but the diabetes is ongoing and unfixable.

Just recently been there with the husband, he's type 2 and diet controlled but was losing heart and eating cake etc. What I did was trawl the internet for good LC cooking, finding new ways of cooking stuff like cabbage (bleugh!) etc. One site especially is great...

6.0 !!! Husband doing well, first 6 in many many months
