[QUOTE="Glink, post: 1752693, member: 254742"] I eat pretty much the same every day now, thanks to diabetes & allergies. I usually bike commute and find I have to eat something filling before biking to/from work: Breakfast: 2 chicken sausages (1 g carb) & coffee w almond milk (6g) 10:30 snack: handful of nuts (usually almonds, sometimes mixed, about 6-10g net?) Lunch: salad consisting of a head of lettuce, smoked fish (no sugar) and dressing (1g). Sometimes egg or a carrot (4g) or cucumber as well if I have them around. Afternoon snack: coffee & nuts or small apple w. nut butter (6-20 g depending on how much and whether apple or not) Dinner: some sort of meat or fish cooked with a lot of veg, usually some combo of broccoli, zucchini, celery, kale (~13 g net carb, avg) Probably 50-75 g carb net each day these days. I used to be more hardcore LC but I got so tired of going to bed hungry every night, and I was losing almost too much weight (I am fairly thin to begin with). However, I haven't made any big changes to my diet in, oh, a year? More? Nothing that should be making things change now, anyway. I've been ravenously hungry the past week or so and eating more nuts, which I know is more carbs, but...I'm hungry and they are filling and low carb. I can't find any reason for the uptick in symptoms, but I'm not scheduled to see my GP until June and if my FBG is fine at mid morning I don't think he'll see the problem unless my HbA1c is bad. So far my HbA1c has been shockingly good despite waking highs and inability to tolerate eating many carbs or virtually any grains without spiking and passing out. [/QUOTE]
