[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1953590, member: 94045"] I'm afraid your understanding is incorrect. White bread and wholemeal bread have the same number of carbs for example. Of course, wholemeal is better for us generally than white, but the carb contents are the same. However, you have reduced your HbA1c to non-diabetic levels on your chosen diet, so you must be doing something right. :) As for your cholesterol. Your HDL could be a lot better, and will be if you reduce your carbs. It is known that carbohydrate depletes HDL. Your trigs are not wonderful, but that could have been the milk in the coffee. On your next test make sure you have water only, and plenty of it. [/QUOTE]
