[QUOTE="churchcreek, post: 1160632, member: 22619"] I come from a long line of diabetics, just waiting for my turn. The dietician advice is spot-on. Next - doctors don't know squat about nutrition. You can't just give up fruit. Portion control is key. A few things that might help -if you're going to eat beef, eat the sirloin. It's leaner. Smaller portion. You can eat more raw vegetables than cooked. A BIG thing is get rid of white-flour products and move to whole grains. Whole wheat breads, pastas, brown rice, etc. The first ingredient should say " whole wheat flour" or "whole grain" etc. These don't spike your blood sugar as badly. The bedtime snack should include some protein - helps keep your sugar steadier through the night. Control your fat intake, and don't just substitute the fake no-fat stuff in it's place. It's tricky but possible to still have some of the things you like, just not all the time. Or a whole carton of ice cream, which will be my problem. :) [/QUOTE]
