[QUOTE="Priam, post: 1267416, member: 258745"] Good question: "What is a sensible diet." My version would be not to eat a plate of sausages every day - but maybe two or three once a week; never eat MacDonalds or similar takeaway foods - especially pizzas. As a competing cyclist I would have loaded on pasta but nowadays I would limit pasta to about once every couple of weeks. In fact when I was first diagnosed with T2 I didn't eat pasta or bread (we bake our own) until my HbA1c came down from 65 to 46. I now have a few very thin slices a week. I try and eat food with a high fibre content and a low net carbo content, such as avocado. I usually now eat about two a week, in massive salads. I now also eat a lot more fish and protein with no carbs. Between January and May this year I was restricting my net carbs to between 50-70 grams per day, but I no longer measure them and try and rely on common sense - which as my wife says: "ain't that common."
