I have seen the nurse practitioner at my GP surgery and then dietician at the hospital clinic. This is the standard approach in the UK. Surprise, surprise they didn't agree; is it any wonder I was confused!?!??? I was diagnosed in January 2015. I am type 2 but not medicated. Am advised to try and control this with diet…

Love the graphic. Thanks for the advice.

Cheers. I don't recognise brands you mention (I am on the UK) but am sure I will find similar. I have a predominantly savoury taste prefere Also we don't seem to add as much sugar to things as the USA if cookery shows are anything to go by lol.

It's really confusing. I would agree with you re porridge but diabetes clinicians say low carb diet but start the day with porridge to get the slow released energy it brings. I need variety to not only get this under control but to also stick to my weigh less goals.

Thanks. Am not typically a breakfast person but need to get a routine going. Have been told to try porridge but I hate it.
