[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2041355, member: 355878"] You might like to swap to a low carb bread - I get a very low carb Protein bread from Asda - it is expensive but only 4 gm of carb per slice, so far less than 'normal' bread. There are other breads which are rather higher, but might suit you better - I am really sensitive to carbs and people vary a lot in which foods cause spikes and which do not. Meat, fish, shellfish and other sea food, eggs and cheese are all low carb, though I do smile at the adverts for things which are described as 100 percent something - prime fish or chicken, but which have a thick coating of batter or breadcrumbs - they are on my 'to be avoided' list. I have various kitchen 'toys' which are very useful - the halogen oven with timer and temperature control, a slow cooker, the Tefal Actify, a temperature sensing grill, the induction hob which can sit on a table top is handy and portable. Reducing carbs can mean a loss of fuel for the body, but we do well on fats - if not better. I buy chicken thighs rather than fillets, fattier mince - just add mushrooms to absorb it, I fry eggs after cooking bacon. The advice on saturated fats and low fat everything is proving rather problematic in that it seems to be producing more problems whilst not curing what it is supposed to. [/QUOTE]
