[QUOTE="CollieBoy, post: 327414, member: 26127"] few of us on this forum are qualified as surgeon or physician. We are trying to evolve into "expert patients" and can only tell you what we have found to be a diet that works for us. I have found that what has worked for me is to minimise carbohydrate consumption, eating home prepared foods containing meats, fish,nuts, berry fruits, "above ground" vegetables. the things I avoid are pasta, potatoes,rice, sugar, &"starchy vegetables" although I don't worry unduly if I am presented with an over carby meal, I just eat what i can, and cut back on the rest. This diet has reduced my HbA1c from ~8 to 5.4 and i am complemented on my BG control despite having dropped my Meds from basal & bolus insulin to oral meds to Diet & Exercise. Others favour restricting portions or favour slow release carbohydrates. i advise you to read, experiment and question , everyone is different. Good luck. :thumbup: :thumbup: [/QUOTE]
