Hi again,
Cauliflower mash is a great substitue for potatoes in things such as cottage or shepherd's pie etc. That's something that I've only just started taking advantage of.
Also heard that cauliflower rice is a great substitute for rice too - but I've not tried that yet myself.
My 'on rising' fasting readings have gradually become lower and lower with time since I started my improvement programme. These days they are almost always under 5 - and on very rare occasions just above 5. They weren't always as low as that even at times where I thought that I was doing just fine. I've been taking an apple cider vinegar (I bought them from ASDA) tablet last thing before bed for some time now because I read somewhere on these diabetes forums that doing that lowered morning readings. I'd need to look back to see whether I could work out that might be the reason or whether it was something that just came from my general improvement in blood glucose levels throught each and every day.
