I notice some people are eating things I can only dream of. My blood sugars would be all over the place. This thread is making me realise how very different we all are in response to foods and blood sugars.

I thought that the MDI system for T1 would allow more ability to handle all types of food. I think I am finally realising I can't and am finding it very hard to come to terms with. I am full of admiration for your control!
 
Breakfast: Lizi's Granola, muesli and flax seeds with soy milk

Lunch: a low carb pitta bread with quorn slices, lettuce, celery, a Shape yoghurt and a Kiwi

Dinner: an experiment: low carb pasta bake, with added peppers and mushrooms, and home made fruit salad.

I've previously used Dreamfields pasta, which gives a horribly long "tail" of blood glucose action, and I've never trusted extended boluses when going to bed, so this time I used Protopasta which is made mostly from soya, and has only 14g carbs per 100g. This worked well in terms of blood sugar but doesn't absorb as much liquid so isn't quite as nice in a bake. I think I'll stick with it though as it with such a low carb content and no long tail, it makes life a lot easier!

I sort of gave up crisps about 6 months after diagnosis - used to love 'em, especially Worcester Sauce and Smoky Bacon. When I last bought them they were 35p a packet at my local Co-op, noticed yesterday that they are now 60p! 😱 That's 12/-!!!

Weetabix (and all cereals, actually) was something I gave up a few months after diagnosis as I found it impossible to control the spike - think I still have most of a box in the cupboard that are about 3 years past their sell by date! 😱 Shame really, as I was brought up on them - they saved my life as a baby, because I was losing weight and it was the only solid food I could keep down so always had a fondness for it. Mind you, as a young child I remember spooning tablespoons of sugar on the top and then watching as it soaked up the milk - must have been about 50g extra sugar carbs as well as the Weetabix and milk 😱
