[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 2077783, member: 94045"] Well, his current diet is not doing his health any favours, so he really needs to get his head round how dangerous diabetes can be when it isn't controlled. If he is determined not to go down the drug route, then his only option is diet, and that means far less carbs (no bread). For lunch he could have cold meats, chicken thighs, other cold cuts, cherry tomatoes, cheese, salad stuff. His yogurts need to be plain unsweetened full fat yogurts (Greek yogurts are good) with a couple of chopped up strawberries or half a dozen raspberries added. Fruit in general is a poor idea - there is far too much sugar in it. Have a look at this site [URL]https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/60-seconds[/URL] and the food lists [URL]https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/foods#foodlist[/URL] [URL]https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/foods#foodtoavoid[/URL] If he insists on 5,000 calories (a huge amount, even for a man with his job) then most of these calories need to come from protein sources and fats rather than carbs.
