I eat fruit most days often with my lunch and sometimes as a snack, you dont say what fruit you are eating or how much just that your DN has suggested you cut back.
Many find that small amounts of fruit eaten either with a meal or as a snack are fine but the emphasis needs to be on 'small amounts of' and not 'fruit' so 4 to 8 grapes may be OK where as a bunch of grapes will almost certainly cause most diabetics a very large spike in bg levels. Similarly half an apple probably OK but an apple an orange and a banana would be way too much for most diabetics to handle.
Personally I cant eat just a small handful of grapes, I want to eat the whole bunch so I tend to avoid them now most of the time. But I've found that a small green apple or a small/medium sized orange or a clementine is fine for me, thats one or another not all three at once
others may find they can eat less and others more so it is important that you find out what you personal levels are.
All fruits contain sugar fruit juices are even worse as they will be concentrated, you may have seen the advert that promises two whole oranges in every glass!! Probably too much for most diabetics.
Test every meal and tweak them till the portions of carbs in that meal are small enough not to give you levels outside your targets 2 hours after eating (postprandial). :thumbup:
