[QUOTE="Paulwbm, post: 400334, member: 73666"] [b]Re: How long does it take for a piece of toast to be digeste[/b] Hi Charon Thank you for your helpful reply. I thought that this was unlikely. I have cut down dramatically on sugar / carbs. On the sugar side, I have totally stopped eating or drinking anything that has sugar (sucrose, glucose syrup, fructose syrup etc)amongst its ingredients. I have also reduced carbohydrates to a comparatively low level (most days not more than 100 gm total). Now eating lots of salads, vegetables, some fruit (berries, pears)fish, very lean meat, nuts. bread - but not more than 2 slices per day (always rye bread or very course wholegrain). Exercising daily (brisk walking and some cycling). Need to up this (but still a bit lazy). I've been on this regime since shortly after diagnosis (end of April 13) but do now find that I feel hungry most of the time. I think this is because I am also trying to keep fats intake down. My BG levels are not particularly high (within NICE guidelines for T2s most of the time) but I want to do better than NICE if I can. [/QUOTE]
