[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 1989876, member: 345386"] [USER=101199]@Helsharrison[/USER] - I fully appreciate that as a T1 you have way more flexibility in terms of dietary choices than most T2s who need to manage their carb intake somewhat, in order to keep their bloods in shape. I know you carb count too, but with a different mechanism in mind. As someone who was already eating in a lower carb way, when told to go GF, I looked at the Endo and stated it'd be a dawdle, as I didn't eat grain products anyway. Little did I know at that moment where the pesky gluten hides! On a personal front, I avoid products marked as GF, unless they are naturally so, so no GF pasta, bread or the like for me. The exceptions I make are GF Worcester Sauce and Soy Sauce. It's just easier, in my view, to choose natural foods where I know it can't have been contaminated in any way. I've had a couple of nasty experiences when I have ordered from the GF menu when eating out. How are you getting along with the eating side of things? [/QUOTE]
