| Re: Low Carb Diet?
Dream,
Usually I am against low carb (high-fat) dieting, but for diabetics with errors in their glucose metabolism, it is another thing entirely.
It is not so much what to buy, but rather what to avoid.
OFF your list is cake, candy, pie, or anything with sugar in it.
OFF your list are high-carb vegetables like pasta, rice, potatoes, corn, cereals, etc.
OFF your list are fruits and bread
ON your list are eggs, meat, green vegetables, salads/salad dressing. You will be eating LOTS of eggs in the morning...LOTS!
No regular sodas, but all the Diet Soda you want (and Diet Jello...probably the ONLY dessert.)
Sort of in between are beans and milk because both have very slowly digested carbohydrates.
Did your doctor give you a spelled out diet with DO's and DON'T's?
