[QUOTE="Phub, post: 1529635, member: 135068"] Since being diagnosed with T2D my simple rule is; if it wasn't available to our ancestors (Pre-agricultural age) then I try to avoid it. I live quite well on any edible form of meat, fish, sea food. (Fancy being able to eat lobster and crab, when 'on a diet'! ) I eat lots of poultry; especialy chicken thighs, and eggs; coddled. For my veg any form of edible leafy veggies, (Go easy on legumes) The only processed foods I eat are bacon, cheese, cream and occasionally milk. (I know milk isn't processed, as such but we are the only species that seeks to drink milk after weaning, and at that, the milk of another species!) I go easy on the fruit, and mostly I go for berries. I like them with custard of course, but as that is another grain based product, I forgo it too! I don't eat potatoes, and little other root crops, and I avoid all grain products, especially wheat. I am losing weight steadily, and I feel all the better for it. I am due another routine check at the Doc's, so we shall see what we shall see! Wonder if I will get off metformin? I suspect it's that which has upset my rhythmic bodily cycle. (You get my drift I hope!) So, if you can't find a varied, healthy diet from all the foods I mention; then you might need to experiment with them a little. [/QUOTE]
