Number 7 - What did you eat today?

Diabetes is all about food really and there’s so much advice about what your should and shouldn’t eat that it can be a bit of a minefield trying to work out what’s best. As diabetes management is also a very personal thing, no one way of eating is suitable for all and people often feel they have to restrict their diet, or are given standard dietary information like ‘5 fruit and veg a day’ or ‘eat plenty of starchy carbs’.

It was very illuminating, therefore, when Bev started up the ‘What did you eat today’ thread in June 2009, which quickly gained great popularity and was hugely interesting to read what food choices everyone was making. The thread eventually reached just short of 300 posts in a month, and was a great source of ideas, particularly for lunches I think as these can often be problematical when you may have limited time to prepare and eat.
