Hi, has anyone any idear fro low carb bread?. I have diabetes type 2 and need to lose some weight to get my blood glucose levels down. The problem I have is that I love bread and don't feel full without, I have tried Burgen low GI soy and linseed bread but it sends my B/G up, so any ideas?, thanks, Debra :cry:
 
hello :) have you tried flaxseed or oatmeal bread?

Buy yourself a bread maker and it will be easy to make it.

I love that Burgens low GI bread, cant really say if ive noticed that it pushes my BG up tho, but i was never very good at getting my diabetes under control until recently. I now eat 1 slice of wholemeal from a small hovis loaf a day, only 57 cals a slice.

What meds are you on and how are you getting on with them, whats your fasting BG? mine was 5.6 when i was on gliclazide but ive gone back to glucophage for its appetite suppresing qualities (was also getting hypos with the gliclazide) and now im getting a fasting of around 6.8 to 7.2
 
Thanks very much Lynn, I think I will have to give up the bread altogether, although I might have a go at making it myself. I am type 2 controlled with D/E only, my recent HbA1c was 5-9
