Diabetes And Cooking

i have type 2, alot of green stuff meats all lean... which is good cause i like deer and bison and even get my hamburger lean now. and lots of leafy green stuff as unprocessed as you can stand it...lol broccoli, spinach (i love baby) and so forth.

i only use olive oil for cooking and no white color foods... to starchy and instant sugar in your system.

if you eat oatmeal you want the steel cut, for flavor add cinnamon (its suppose to help with sugar spikes)

the food you need to eat dont have to be boring....the key is to retrain your taste buds which looks like you done with tea and such.. i use splenda cause sweet and low had a weird aftertaste to me.

also get up and out as much as your body will let you, get that exercise...even if its just walking.

With the Tea it does have a bitter aftertaste. But when we switched to Decaf the bitter aftertaste it isn't here. I always like fresh veggies or frozen the canned veggies loses all the vitamins. We go to a local Butcher shop and get our meats all extra lean including hamburger which is 93/7.
No frying at all. Baked,broiled, and soon a new gas grill.
The exercise is the hard part but me and the goes to small stores to walk,it's safer for me to be on a flat surface. My back and legs are still weak.
