Xylitol


As you say "its all about what you put with it". But I did read somewhere (can't remember where) that Diet Coke is "not good" for Diabetics. And peas, as you say, are sweet.
 
I am now back in the UK and am trying to put into effect all the good advice that Forum members have been giving me over these past 3 months. Cut down on potatoes, bread, rice, pizza, etc. But will miss my Naan bread, Garlic bread, oranges for breakfast, and home made muesli. I had some lovely "honey roast ham" and egg for supper. Delicious.
 
Yesterday I started the LCHF diet. Breakfast: home made Muesli. Lunch: salad, cheese, one half slice of bread. Evening meal: Lamb shanks, cauliflower, sprouts, cheese sauce. No potatoes and carrots.

Didn't even feel hungry this morning so delayed breakfast until 10 am (home made muesli). Ate lunch at 4 pm (cooked ham, cheese) about to have another lamb shank, etc. I am still not hungry (unusual).
 

Since writing the above Post, about a year ago, I have STOPPED taking home made Museli and started having an orange plus bacon, eggs, tomatoes and half a slice of bread for breakfast. Blood Sugar varies between 4.3 and 6.8 and I don't have HYPOS any more.

Progress.
