Your carb nemesis?

Bisto gravy!
Bread of any sort except Lidl rolls
Batter

Therefore, I can say flour is my nemesis.

New and roast potatoes are Ok in small portions, chips are quite good if double or triple fried.



I agree with you about spuds.
Have you tried sweet potatoes they are not as bad.
Also Almond or Coconut flour to make small rolls or loaf bread.
There are recipes on here somewhere x
 


Yes mine stays up ages especially if it's cake with icing lol x
 

I'm not diabetic either and, as I understand it, non-diabetics always have a spike after eating carbs but it's smaller and comes down much more quickly because the insulin response isn't impaired. A carb-heavy diet can, in some cases, damage the metabolic and insulin response which may lead to T2.

This is very simplified and misses out some steps but, basically, we're all better off reducing carbs, particularly sugar, to keep our systems working optimally.
 
Australian Rice , worse then Sugar itself
2nd- French Fries
3rd- Mango (idk what's wrong lol)
 

Hi @Beagler

That is a question that needs a thread of its own as responses will vary. It is a hotly debated subject.
