The Weightwatchers ones are all pretty good. Agree wholeheartedly about bananas - pears are a lower alternative, or plums.  I would recommend that you get a copy of the Collins Little Gem Carb Counter book. It fits easily in a pocket and gives the carb values of just about any food you can think of. Costs about £3 in Smiths or Waterstones.Re "NHS advice" you need to bear in mind that the NHS does not give dietary advice specifically for diabetics. The advice is aimed primarily at people who have pancreases that are able to process the carbs in their diets.  Unfortunately most diabetics find they need to eat less carbs than the NHS recommends to be able to control blood glucose levels.Dennis</blockquote>
