[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1750779, member: 355878"] Hello and welcome. You should soon get a message from Daisy giving you lots of information - but the one basic fact to keep hold of - above anything else, is that you can't cope with carbs - that is starch and sugar. You can have roast meat, or fish, shellfish if you like it, and eggs and most cheese is OK. You can put cream in your coffee, or on a small portion of berries (though blueberries are a bit high in sugar and best avoided) There are lots of veges which are low carb - I stick to those below 11 percent carbs or have just a very small portion. The great thing is that for a lucky type two that can put all the readings into the normal range quite quickly, and as the metabolism recovers it brings back energy, and even weightloss!! The most annoying thing is that people have been trying to get it noticed that we are eating too much carbohydrate - Dr Atkins was telling us this decades ago - but it was ignored in favour of low fat and high carb - like that has worked well.....
