[QUOTE="tina t, post: 2129947, member: 511590"] hi Sam, I use book from Diabetic department at my hospital that is was issued with a meter I don't now use. It is very good as it shows pictures of food in various quantities, over time you get to recognise how many calories etc just by looking. Sadly when feeling under the weather etc( have various other serious illnesses) I lose the ability and have to check . I strongly feel hoe cooked is best I batch cook. My family don't eat much of the food I choose for myself s I am mostly vegetarian now but I do cook for them as well. I do buy some ready made foods and have to check the labels as you say. diabetes , being a life long condition does get boring to friends and family and it is difficult for us to accept they cant remember basics of how we try and get control but.. that's life. Good luck and keep your spirits up you seem to be doing OK. Christine [/QUOTE]
