The best way to learn what you can and cannot eat is to eat a particular food then test two hours later to see the results. Some people have to eat low-carb, but I can eat almost anything I want in moderation, especially if I do a few minutes of exercise about 30 minutes after eating. That exercise can be as little as making our bed, washing dishes, etc. I eat potatoes a couple times a week, I eat oatmeal several mornings a week and never get high readings. Other people can look at these foods and almost get high readings. LOL You need to see a nutritionist or diabetes educator. They will help you with a food plan. Since diabetes is different for everyone, you may have to adjust the plan to suit you, but it will give you a starting point. The most important thing to remember is for you to control diabetes and not let it control you. Happy New year Eunice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
