New to diabetes

[Arfon]

I've just been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes since last week and just getting used to it but have to watch what I eat now is there things you cannot eat at all as the doctor has mentioned a few thing but not a lot?

Hi Arfon.

Welcome to the forum. Have a good look around the Food section, the non low carb and the low carb sections as well. You should pick up some ideas about diet.

A lot of us on here cannot tolerate carbs so have to reduce or avoid them, others have no problems with them. YOU will have to work out for yourself what is best for you. If you have any other questions just ask ?

Ken.

Welcome!
You are so lucky to have a doctor who hasn't told you to eat anything you want and take a shedload of medicine.
You will be fine with that standard of care

arfon. There is shedloads of info around here about what you can and can't eat. Took me a while to find out but the food and low carb/nonlow carb bits are good places to start looking.
