I just checked the Lentils. Carbs = 17g per 100g and the full pot of soup uses 125g lentils.

You can then easily work out how many carbs your portion of soup would be. Many people find following a low carbohydrate diet restrict the Total carbs per day to less than130g though some do go lower and they will lose weight without worrying about calories. Indeed full fat dairy will help to stop you feeling hungry and many full fat products are lower carb than low fat.

Had a good week with both food and fluid volumes and content and really feel the benefit of it. As an end of week treat (and I'll make sure it is just the one as I am 100% in the right mindset) we had a curry each and 1 x naan between us. It was good but I didn't miss it as much as I thought as I have been enjoying my healthier food. First week on Diabetes UK and it has been great support. Best wishes and love to ALL who are Diabetic. Jim p.s. I inject with 12mm of Victosa every day (what is it and what is it supposed to do???
