[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 2454696, member: 101136"] Hi, It's great you use a device to monitor your BG trends.. I'm an L2 user too. The way I see it. Your breakfast choice just didn't seem to compliment what you are prescribed for your diabetes. You are looking at the carbohydrate content with your beans which get digested & broken down to sugar. Assuming a half tin on the peice of toast? 19.6g? Outlined here on a generic brand. [URL]https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/295444766[/URL] Then looking at the bread. Which in most packaging panels regarding nutritional value. The carb content can be somewhere upto & around the same as a half can of low sugar beans? (As a guide.) Both types of food mentioned are by "design" are to aid satiety for the average consumer whilst also conforming to the low fat ethos? Regarding "health." Unfortunately for the diabetic. It can still also lead to a disappointing effect on BGs.. But all is not lost.. You're armed with a device that can gauge what can work for you.. :) There can be a lot positive to be said for something like the traditional "fry up." Sans the bread, beans & hash browns.. Or even a smoked kipper..?? [/QUOTE]
