[QUOTE="srm100841, post: 104642, member: 22527"] I've experimented a bit with the coffee. Pre diagnosis I drank coffee as often as it was offered. This always came with full cream milk and 2 heaped teaspoons of sugar (get thee behind me, and all that). Until about 10 days ago I had coffee with full cream milk plus a Canderel tablet. This I found to push my levels up. I changed to a Splenda tablet and this brought the levels back down. This week however I've had no sweeteners at all. My drink doesn't taste too much like coffee to me but I believe that it's not doing any harm. I think that I will have to go one step back and have a Splenda tablet. I do like coffee and cream but I still like a bit of sweetness. Thanks for the suggestion though. I haven't had any fruit at all since I started the low carb diet. I would dearly like a small quantity and will have to experiment to see if my levels remain largely unaffected if I have the odd bit of apple or orange. Steve [/QUOTE]
