[QUOTE="lollerhaylz, post: 1975590, member: 499603"] The yogurt is fat free but not sure about added sugar. The carb content of one pot is 5.3g. Is this a problem? I don't really fancy switching to a full fat one, thought this would be a healthier option. I have however been counting the carbs for the mixed nuts & raisins wrong! :facepalm: I had it in my mind that it was 10g but turns out the portion I've been having is 14.4g. So overall I've been having around 20g of carbs for breakfast so I should have been taking more insulin. Just to clarify, the nuts and raisins come pre-mixed in a bag so it would be a pain to pick the raisins out, plus they are the best part for me. I trust the label should account for the sugar in the raisins. I think the reason the dietitian recommended nuts is because the high protein is supposed to slow the carb absorption. So far this switch has just been a bit of a hassle. [/QUOTE]
