[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 243681"] Hi, Depending on the size of the apple the carbs will vary. [url=http://www.diabetesnet.com/food-diabetes/carb-counting/how-count-carbohydrates/carb-challenge]http://www.diabetesnet.com/food-diabete ... -challenge[/url] The shredded wheat are quite carby too. I think an average portion is getting on for 40g. There is nothing to offset the amount of carbs in your meal like some protein or some good fats to slow down the digestion so the carbs will be absorbed quickly. The whole meal is high in carbs. What you also have to bear in mind is that whilst these foods may spike you, they may be perfectly alright for someone else. If there was a blueprint then we could all eat the same things and it would be so easy. 8) You need to keep a food diary and try and see a pattern emerging when you eat so that you can eliminate or have smaller portions of the things that cause a spike and make sure that your meals are balanced.
