Diabetes Talking

Question:

Are you losing weight?  What are your stats? Becky P. www.family.solidrockpl.org

Response:

I, to put it mildly, don’t enjoy cooking.  So low carb foods are a boon for me. Brkfst – ! Cup of Atkins Morning Start Cereal              3/4 cup low car dairy product              1 cup of reduced sugar juice              coffee w/ 2 tablespoons of half and half and artificial sweetner-not splenda- too expensive Snack-low carb candy bar lunch- 2 oz lean sliced turkey or turkey ham            2 oz cheese           1 or 2 slices low carb bread           12 raw baby carrots           1/2 raw green pepper           diet soda snack- low carb candy bar. dinner – one of those delicious low carb frozen dinners-I stock up when they go on sale              a salad with low carb dressing              (with tomato, onion and chopped raw green pepper)              a glass of red wine Bedtime snack-a container of low carb yogurt. Once or twice a week I treat myself to a Coke 2 I do occasionally cook a meat loaf or grill some hamburger patties on my George Foreman grill and have a salad and spinach or green beans with it. This is also, IMO, a good diabetic diet.  My blood sugar is in very good control. Works for me Gary Nichols

You’re joking, right? If this was real, I’d like to see the FitDay breakdown of grams of Carbs, Fat, and Protein, and total calories. Cubit 311/228.5/165
