[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2364302, member: 355878"] I suspect that to remain in the excellent situation you seem to be in, grains are going to be off the menu. There are alternatives though, low carb versions to make - as they are not available commercially. Where type twos diagnosed over 3 years ago might gather, if allowed, they usually lament the Lidl triangular rolls which were low carb, but were discontinued. Your eyesight is not so much deteriorating as changing - the high sugar content of your various fluids is reducing, and that is distorting the lenses in your eyes. It should recover in the fairly near future as it gets sorted out. To stay in ketosis we usually need to have what were normal amounts of fat in the diet - low fat has done nothing to improve health, in fact some illnesses are now more common. Fried eggs are actually not going to absorb the fat they are cooked in, the heat seals them. I have scrambled eggs and incorporate butter into them, but the three eggs with butter, cheese and a tomato have to fuel me for the next 12 hours, and they do - along with a cup of coffee with cream. One of the joys of eating a low carb diet is not being hungry - the almost two years of a low fat high carb low calorie diet I was on before diagnosis resulted in my teeth cracking under the teeth clenching from almost constant hunger and the anxiety that caused. I found that I had lost 50 lb without trying after diagnosis, just by eating low carb without restricting calories. [/QUOTE]
