[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 2057719"] There is a book and app which helps many people work out how many carbs are in your meals, whether pineapple is good, whether carrots are bad, etc. This is called [URL='https://www.carbsandcals.com/']Carbs and Cals[/URL]. Many people with diabetes describe it as their bible. Another place you could start is [URL='http://www.dietdoctor.com']www.dietdoctor.com[/URL] This website contains lots of ideas for low carb meals and is another bible for people managing their diabetes with diet. Over time you will get used to what is high and what is low carb. There are some rules of thumb like - meat is low carb - fish is low carb - vegetables grown above the ground is low carb - vegetables grown below the ground is higher carb - most fruit is higher carb - berries are lower carb - nuts are lower carb - cheese is low carb - eggs are zero carb - be careful of preprepared sauces ... most will contain carbs - grain-based food (cereal, bread, pasta, ...) are high carb ...
