    Okay
    So I read everyone's suggestions this morning & I greatly appreciate all the support more than you know. So, I meet with a dietician that my Dr.'s office uses. I was lucky she had a cancellation an I was available!! So, with me being Celiac, Diabetic & having lactose issues. She has giving me some suggestions. They are to stay away from yellow corn products & avoid processed as much as possible. Try not to eat out which is no big deal because I rarely do that. So,I told her I just bought beef from local farmer all organic it's in the freezer &it is stocked with chicken, shrimp, mahi mahi, some pork & wild caught salmon.
    SO here is her plan:
    1500-1600 calories per day 165g carbs
    breakfast (15g) lunch (60g) dinner (60g)

    11 carbs 4 carbs 4 carbs
    4 veg 2+ veg 2+ veg
    8 meat/protein 4oz m/p 4oz m/p
    4-5 fat 2 fat/hummus 2 fat
    SNACK
    15-30g carb

    CARBS: STARCHES,BREADS,FRUITS,MILK 10-11 choices per day

    This is a totally new dietician than I saw when I was first diagnosed with diabetes. She explained things totally different than first person I saw. But, I will open up my diary so that if you want to help me along the way I would more than welcome it!! I've struggled with my weight for along time now. I once weighed 125lbs. those days I haven't seen in 30yrs.

    Thanks again for all your support & a good kick

    Ok this looks similar to what my personal trainer put me on with one exception. Try flipping your carbs. Unless you're super active after dinner don't eat so many. Eat your breakfast carbs for dinner and your dinner carbs for breakfasts. Start high and work your way down throughout the day because your body doesn't require as much energy once your day is done. I've done this for a month and I'm down 15 pounds. Good luck and God bless.

    Since you are diabetic, I would stick with the recommendations from your dietician. If you want to change it up, check with them first, as it might affect your blood sugar levels.

    (If you weren't diabetic, I would remind you that timing of carbs does NOT affect weight loss!!)

    Please be careful when following advice that might affect your diabetes <3

    i'm also Celiac and lactose intolerant, and I have a ton of other food intolerances as well. There are so many foods that have gluten in them that people don't know about, you really have to be careful when shopping. Anything with any kind of modified food starch has gluten in it unless it specifically says it is gluten free. Broths, soups, sauces, gravies, and many other things. I check every label and I also use an app for my phone called ipiit that's pretty helpful. When going out to eat, I only go to restaurants that have a dedicated gluten-free kitchen; otherwise, cross-contamination from other foods can make me pretty sick.
    If I really stick to all of this, I don't suffer from the bloat or sickness and pain from gluten exposure.
