[QUOTE="VashtiB, post: 2270289, member: 511345"] Hello and welcome Echoing the previous posters- carbs are not your friend. I stick to less than 20 grams a day but others may stick to 100g for example- in either case weet big with dates would not be helpful. The thing is that many do not really understand type 2 diabetes. You really need to cut down the carbs- not just sugar all carbs. But rather than take this on faith- invest in a meter and start testing. If you test before a meal and 2 hours after the first bite it will let you know how your body coped with the meal. You want a rise of less than 2. Many ion the medical Community city don't understand type 2 let alone the general public. The belief is that it ois a progressive illness and you can't do anything about it. That has been demonstrated not to be correct by many people on this site. Start testing and then keep a record off what you ate and see if a meal with lower carbs is better for your body. and if so sweet. ix and dates are not lower carbs. [/QUOTE]
