You can decrease the GL of your breakfast cereal by ensuring that it is as unrefined as possible - if it needs lots of chewing, that is good.
You can add some protein. Have you tried sugar-free muesli mixed in with 0%fat Greek Yoghurt - we came across this idea at a hotel last year.
If you have cereal, don't have toast as well - keep these as either/ors.
If you add a side salad with a vinaigrette dressing to your lunch, it will decrease the GL of the potato - perhaps only eat half the amount of potato with the beans.
Don't add anything starchy to your evening meal - stick to other vegetables. Some people don't get on well with things like parsnips - but luckily I can eat any veg.
Test after each meal to see what happens.
I am by no means a low carber - but you were eating far more carbs than I used eat even before diagnosis.
Cutting down the carbs, and decreasing the GL of my meals made it relatively easy for me to lose 2 1/2 stones this year - and it has stayed off (well almost :? - we have just had Christmas)
