Hello Shoran, welcome to the board 🙂

I've found that I can still eat a bit of bread without it effecting my levels - Hovis Nimble bread is 8.1g per slice, and Warburtons Wholemeal is 9.7g each. Of course, they're slightly smaller than normal slices.
 
Will look out for that bread Beck S as have not tried it. Usually use Burgen Soya and Linseed or make Mark Parrott's Flaxseed Bread recipe or Tom Kerridge's almond bread. My friend from France came over with her little 5 year old in August and I gave some of Mark's Flaxseed bread. She really liked it and asked for the recipe so it has gone to France now too.
 
Hobie ..I don't get it ?

Am I a tad thick today or what. Dad ??...
 
Oh I think I get it now- yeah I'd mentioned my old man earlier so I've got it now ! Sure I'll say hello to him. I don't think he uses this forum.

Thanks
 
By the way I get hot feet ( like today ) with a slightly achey / swollen-ish feeling - it's not too bad, it just feels odd and annoying,not painful. Anyone else get it ?

Is there a remedy ?- or does it just pass with time ? ( sugars adjusting ? - transient neuropathy ??)
Most of you seem to suffer from COLD feet ? I suffer from the opposite !!

I am mindful to wear comfy, not tight fitting shoes. Always have done. I've got wide feet.

While I am here, another thing - any shoe brands you can recommend - anyone ? soft fantastically comfortable wide fitting shoes ?!


Thanks again , Shoran.

You said your Dad is T2 as well. I have always worn trainers even at work. Electrician & up & down ladders every day. Diabetic specialist told me once that they are good for you. Good luck. 🙂
 
Ladders are good for you ? yeah I guess going up 'n down all day will keep you fit..... ; )
