[QUOTE="lrw60, post: 364647, member: 64443"] Hi Vicky, Like you I am wondering what to do about things I shouldn't eat. Bread, spuds etc. I am hoping to find out more about carbs and what I should do to either cut down or avoid them. I always look at the ingredients and nutritional values on any foods I buy, except raw veg of course! But I still don't understand if foods that are high in carbs but low in sugar, are bad for me. I wish foods came with a very clear label, NOT suitable for diabetics! I have a calorie/carb counter book that lists thousands of foods with all the carb, fat, protein and fibre contents. Great if you can eat normal amounts of carbs. My friend wasn't diabetic, that was me! She has been poorly for the last five weeks though, but now on the mend. We are both really looking forward to a change in the weather so we can start long walks again, short walks around her village are good, but Portreath beach really is something else. We stood on the beach last year and watched a seal showing interest in some swimmers on boards. I am finding the low carb section of this forum very interesting. I have emailed a professor friend of mine to see if he can steer me in the right direction. Both he and one of his daughters are doctors, so I am hoping they can help me. Lee [/QUOTE]
