[QUOTE="archersuz, post: 1774469, member: 437371"] Hi I have found through testing that I can eat an apple as part of my lunch with no problems, but I daren't eat one in the evening. I wouldn't eat hummus either! Personally I wouldn't be looking at the percentages - just at the number of gms of carbohydrate. I don't go above 12-15 gm in any meal. I suggest that you decide which meal you want to reduce carb intake in first, and finds alternatives for that meal. I started with my breakfast - cutting porridge and eating greek yoghurt with strawberries and seeds instead. Once I had got used to that, I reduced carbs in my evening meal. Last to go was my bread/sandwich thin at lunchtimes. I now eat low carb soup and salad for lunch. Are you on any BP medication as that can affect BG. [/QUOTE]
