[QUOTE="lessci, post: 639083, member: 74756"] If you're going down the low carb route the humble Cauliflower will be your new friend, Blitz in a food processor it becomes a rice replacement, you can use it to make a pizza base, mashed instead of potatoes. Courgette ribbons to replace pasta. Swede and or Celiriac can also be used instead of mashed potato. If you still crave chocolate go for 70% or more Dark Chocolate (personal favourite is from Aldi, your get 4/5 individually wrapped bars in a packet) gives you the chocolate taste but is such a rich flavour you really can't eat much. I'm about 15 months into my diagnosis and still learning. Best advise I ever got was to get a meter. When I try a new food I test before then 2 hours after, if the BG level is less than a 2 point rise my system can manage if not its food I try and avoid. [/QUOTE]
