[QUOTE="Helen1899, post: 1811571, member: 478308"] Hi everyone! I have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes now for around 9 weeks. I’m 33, have an 11 month old son (was boaderline while pregnant but no gestational diabetes) and weigh 67kg. My BMI is 25. This diagnosis was a big surprise to me but I’ve come to terms with it. I have for the past 6 weeks been seeing a personal trainer. She has set my macros, my blood sugars are improving and I’m losing cms in all the right places. My question is about protein. I can never meet my protein goals. I’ve tried a few low sugar protein bars but find them quite powdery. I’ve always been a fan of a protein shake made with water. Is there any that you would recommend? This would only be for once or twice a week while I’m building muscle and to inch me closer to that goal. I’m eating as much meat and eggs as I can tolerate. I also have a bowel condition (life can be very unfair). Sorry for the long post and thanks in advance for your help! [/QUOTE]
