[QUOTE="urbanracer, post: 999539, member: 140811"] Hi [USER=231724]@Cjburny[/USER] and welcome to the forums. Things that are likely to spike your BGs are rice, cereals, potato, bread and pasta. Of course, sugary drinks like juices and full fat coke are quickly absorbed (good for hypo's). Depending on your insulin regime (twice a day or every meal) you can in theory eat what you want as long as you know what the food is doing to you and you can compensate with injections. Many of us here have reduced our carb intake and find it easier to manage diabetes. Only you can decide the right amount. The reference intake is 260g per day, I'm at around 120g at the moment, some are below 50g. Putting on weight is not always easy on this diet but if you lost weight uncontrollably during the pre diagnosis period you should regain this naturally over the coming weeks. [/QUOTE]
