How was your own testing? While 13.5 is high, it's not as high as the HbA1c suggests & not high enough for ketones to be a concern (I was told no need to test unless 15+ consistently). So bearing in mind that the HbA1c is a 90 day average, you may already be coming down naturally.

The odd sandwich isn't going to do any great harm, although I was using tinned soups for lunch when I was high. A cream of chicken or mushroom only runs to about 15-20g of carbs.

I've heard people use large iceberg lettuce leaves instead of bread.... I'm going to try it soon as I have wheat intolerance and T2d .... Gluten free bread is gross anyway!!

There are some recipes for gluten free savoury muffins on the internet which may be an option as a change.

It's edible if you toast it 🙂 Better still make your own.

You are correct about toasting it.... its what I have my tuna on if I don't a lettuce leaves to make wraps.. I only purchase G/F bread when it's on offer. I've learnt to do without bread but do miss having Welsh butter on 2 thick crusts....
