[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2493371, member: 372207"] Hi [USER=553310]@annejane[/USER] , welcome to the forum! You won't get booed by anyone, and if you are, please hit the report button! Booing is definitely against our forum ethos, the first rule of which says: "The Diabetes Forum is our Member interaction area, where questions are asked and exchanges of views take place. Please ask questions, provide answers, start debates and challenge where appropriate - but please be compassionate, considerate and kind towards others. Civil debate is healthy, but rudeness, bullying and/or Member belittling is not acceptable and will not be tolerated." Your food preferences don't make it easier, but there's a lot of room still! If you like fizzy juice a lot, what about drinking the light versions? While they're not exactly healthy, they won't raise your blood glucose like the regular versions do, it might make a lot of difference! Nuts are perfect, very filling and not a lot of carbs. :) And soups give you a lot of playing room. If you leave out the pasta/potatoes and add in some cream or cheese (or both), perhaps some tofu or eggs for protein, you'll have a very diabetes friendly and filling meal. If you use the stick blender on the veggies in your soup you might find they're fine, structure wise. Cereals are likely to raise your BG. Do you happen to like full fat plain greek yoghurt? Because it's 10% fat it's a filling breakfast all by itself. Many of us like to add some berries or nuts too, or grated chocolate of a high (85% or more) cocoa percentage. Most fruits are high carb and will raise your BG, so with the smoothies it just depends on what you put in. [/QUOTE]
