[QUOTE="resander, post: 2182791, member: 455577"] Many thanks for your kind reponses. I have had diabetes for at least 2 years and measured fasting blood sugar and blood sugars before and after meals the first 2 months. That helped to identify foods I could eat and what to put on daily menus: 6am breakfast: eggs, bacon, cheese, ham, sausages,.. 9am Cream coffe: Instant Coffee + 3 tbsp double cream 12noon lunch: sausage-omelette, Bratwurst, Quarter pounder (<0.1g carb), cod, sardines, 100g Greek yogurt, raspberries, strawberries... 2pm Cream coffe: Instant Coffee + 3 tbsp double cream 6pm dinner: beef, pork, chicken, fish, celariac/cauliflower mash, broccoli, raspberries, strawberries (a comma above means and/or) With this daily menu dinner blood sugars are usually 6.0-7.0mmol/L and always below 7.8mmol/L. A bit monotonous maybe, but it works. Here are today's (12 December) blood sugars before and after eating Lunch 12noon: 2 85g Dulano Chilli Bratwurst sausages (each 1g carb, LIDL): 100g Greek yogurt (4g carb,Tesco): Before-eating: 6.3mmol/L 2-hours after eating: 6.6mmol/L and Dinner 6pm: 180g chicken 100g celeriac mash: 6g carbs 50g boiled brussel sprouts: 2g carbs Before-eating: 5.8mmol/L 2-hours after eating: 6.9mmol/L [USER=41816]@Brunneria[/USER]: maybe the higher than expected values last Saturday and Sunday were caused by a really bad flu I caught on Friday and that I had until yesterday; not by the trout (that I had never eaten before). We will try to buy trout again from the same shop and measure before and after. Should be interesting! Btw, My diabetes has not gone away. A slice of white bread or 200g white rice or 200g potatoes sends the blood sugars to 10-14mmol/L and a sachet Quaker Oats followed by a sandwich from M&S/supermarkets result in 16mmol/L two hours after eating.
