[QUOTE="SlimLizzy, post: 2184071, member: 488270"] Your current diet chicken, beef and cauliflower/ brocolli is missing the vital element of fat. It's true we have been indoctrinated to think of fat as bad for us. But for those if us with a carb intolerance it's essential . Have you made cauliflower rice? ( just grate up a cauliflower) Try frying it in butter with whatever herbs and spices go with your chicken /beef. Do you eat cheese? An excellent source of both protein and fat. Full fat, unsweetened yoghurts and berries are tasty and filling. And a delicious desser for those of us who need that. Obviously you are concerned about your cholesterol levels. However you need to know that most of it is produced by our liver. Dietary fat has little effect on cholesterol levels, but will stop the incessant hunger. Try bacon and eggs for breakfast. Coffee with cream. Snack on nuts. Hope this random rambling helps. Best wishes from a fellow prediabetic. Liz [/QUOTE]
