[QUOTE="Sable_Jan, post: 481424"] I've found through my testing that even the so called "good" breads put my bs up quite a lot towards other foods so expect pasta will be the same. I'm currently trying "Zero" noodles - tried the spaghetti version so far and it was ok - got to have a tasty sauce with it though or green pesto and veggies was nice. I've not sugared tea and coffee for years though when I have had pop it has been the "real stuff" no sugar free stuff cos the sweeteners are revolting :yuck::yuck::yuck:. I'd been eating lots of fruit but in jelly as a "healthy" snack to help me lose weight which was working well and kept me full and off the crisps and biscuits. Think I'm going to make some again cos I just stopped completely because of the sugar but now want to see just what it does to my bs. (Does anyone know if the "2 hours" after meals if from the START or END of the meal please? Unable to do the vigorous exercise because I have fibromyalgia but do use my x-trainer when I can I want to avoid having to take any more pills than I already do so I'm really being good. A friend took me for a carvery for my birthday (delicious and the roasties don't spike me so much as the mash, though obviously too many won't help the weight) she asked if I wanted a pud but as usual I was full. She still got me a chocolate fudge cake, it looked "to die for" as they say but said I really am full but dread to think what that would do for my blood sugar - she said "oh sh*t, I forgot about that" and ate it herself. I didn't know what the phrase "to die for" really meant until I put it in that context and thought actually, I don't want to die for it at all...... Finished waffling now :D And well done again for the weight loss and keep on lowering the blood sugar levels [/QUOTE]
