[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2641310, member: 506169"] You don't see the needle when using a lancing device for a Blood Glucose meter. It does sometime hurt a bit, but also often you don't even feel it if done properly on the side of a finger pad (not on the pad itself). In the UK the cheapest meat tends to be the best for a Low Carb way of eating - i.e. the fattiest cuts Pork belly, ground beef with a high fat content. Eggs too are still a relatively cheap source of high quality proteins and fats. All digestible carbohydrates turn into sugar when digested. Baked or mashed potato has a higher Glycaemic Index than table sugar! So grains of any colour, bread, breakfast cereals, tropical fruit, fruit juice do a Type 2 diabetic body no favours at all. In fact I blame a 'healthy' low fat, whole grain, high fruit way of eating for making me gain weight and give me Type 2 diabetes on the first place! [/QUOTE]
