And I avoid processed food and takeaways on a regular basis (I have always preferred home cooked) But no doctor or dietician (both of which I see regularly) would suggest that you give up fruit! Fruit is part of a healthy balanced diet. Personally, I don't like cereal. But that's because I don't like milk! So I have porridge instead. I rarely go above 9mmol/l (I aim to be below 8.5 but there is always room for error in calculating the carb) and no doctor had ever said I am wrong in this. I take 3u back ground a day and about 7u total of quick acting insulin. I wouldn't call that a lot!Helpful tip for you though, cherries are EXTREMELY low GI and you can eat as many as you like without a spike</blockquote>
