Hello all.

Happy Birthday Christo.....

Your meter will tell you if this bread is OK for you...... It's your Birthday, you can treat yourself (as long as your BG is not too high)
 
I have been having bread with no problems. The main thing is you don't have too much of it and the filling is just as important as the bread. Wholegrain and whole meal is said to be better for you. The main thing is we have a balanced diet which includes carbohydrates. I was told to spread my carbs over the day so split them between my three main meals each day.

As Martin says testing will give you a good idea of what works for you and what doesn't, and as long as they are treats things like cake and biscuits are allowed.

Happy birthday too.
 
Happy birthday Christo2. The meter will tell you as others have already said. Of course it also depends on how much you have. Sweet potatoes are better than white potatoes but again use your meter to tell you their effect on you. I think we all need a little treat now and then just to keep going. Birthday sounds like a good time for this. Enjoy yourself. 🙂
