Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kyambala" data-source="post: 1339010" data-attributes="member: 210735">Good evening my learnerd friend.  (1) The fish was fresh fish cooked in oil and not battered.(2)  The high carbs were Posho (Cornflour); Rice, Matoke (cooked vegetable banana), and Millet.(3)  The bread WAS my evening meal.(4)  No Hypo last night and only got up once in the night. (Normally 2 or 3 times).(5)  At 6 pm it was 9.2 which was before eating & Insulin.(6)  In Uganda I don't have much choice over what I eat.  Staple is Matoke, Posho, Rice, Potatoes, Bread.  In the "bush" things like Beef, Bacon, Ham, Lamb, and Pork are not readily available.  I even have to drive 25km to buy Bread.(7)  All of this food is fresh and NOT processed - so my blood sugar tends to be lower than in the UK where I eat a mixture of carbs & protein.(8) Tonight I had fried egg, tomatoes, and cabbage, all rolled up in a Chapati (I had about 5) - we call this "Rolex" ( In Uganda we don't wear Rolex - we EAT them.)Thank you for your concern.</blockquote>
