[QUOTE="Sam50, post: 1750819, member: 419035"] hi [USER=471985]@gavmoulds[/USER] welcome to the forum, have a good read around the forum and ask anything that you need to know-everyone is very supportive here. You might find that you are given conflicting information regarding what is 'healthy' for a diabetic. You need to reduce carbs as well as obvious sugars. So no/low bread/grains/rice/pasta/potato/starchy veggies like sweetcorn/parsnip. Lots of yummy recipes on the forum. all carbs turn to sugar during digestion some take longer to digest than others but the effect on the blood glucose is the same. get yourself a BG meter and test yourself before and 2 hours after eating to see how different foods affect you. as your blood glucose lowers you will soon start feeling more energized x [/QUOTE]
