Sainsburys, if you have one there, sells a Burgen high protein (lower carb) soy and linseed loaf. Some of the supermarkets have caught on and sell there own brand of low carb bread but advertise it as higher protein. See HiLo bread too.
Have a look at the amount of carbs they have. It could well be you're having as much carbs with the whole meal bread and pita's as with the bread you love!Wholemeal wraps and pittas have helped with my lunches, but are poor replacements for real bread!
Does your Tesco not deliver?Thank you. No Sainsburys I'm afraid - we only have Tesco (only one, which is in the capital 24 miles away) Co-op and local ShopRite which is associated with Waitrose for some product. That's it....island life.

In which case it doesn't make much sense to eat things you don't like, if they raise your blood sugar just as much as the things you like...
Do you use a meter to test how your diabetes reacts to different foods?
Waitrose do a great low carb bread called LivLife - only 3.8g per slice. Perhaps the Waitrose type shop you have there can get you some, or buy a few loaves when back on the Mainland and take back to freeze. Hovis do a Lower Carb bread - still about 10g per slice though. I believe Burgen might be lower carb but definitely not as low as Livlife
Yes Tesco and Co-Op sell Burgen Soya and Linseed bread which quite a few on this forum haveThank you.

Tesco do a high protein loaf which is 10g carbs per slice - although at the moment it’s difficult to get hold of because they’ve changed the manufacturers to WarburtonsThank you.
