[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2272276, member: 401801"] As you've already heard, weetabix, porridge, toast and sandwiches, pasta and banana's... None of those are low carb. So that's the good news: there IS actaully room for improvement and less of a chance you're a misdiagnosed T1 (Which happens more often than you might think). So the puzzle now is to find things you like to eat. Do you use spices and herbs at all? As you mention foods being bland? An omelette with berries, coconut shavings, cream and maybe some erythritol (can do without, mind you). Cauliflower rice with curcuma, garlic, pepper and salt, cheese and maybe bacon's a staple here, though I might switch the herbs and spices around, goes great with just about any sort of meat... Snacks could be blocks of cheese, pork scratchings, olives, a square or two of extra dark chocolate, stuff like that. Full fat greek yoghurt, or for variety, full fat coconut yoghurt... With nuts, berries and/or coconut shavings, maybe with sweetener, cacoa or cinnamon...? Maybe make your own keto mug bread to replace the toast? Think on what you'd like to eat and whether there are alternatives for it. You might be surprised.... [/QUOTE]
