To answer, I documented a week of meals.

(And, to add some context – my meals are supplemented with a qatwqaice-daily dose of metformin and repaglinide and an hour daily of stationary bike or weight-bearing exercise)qa

DAY 1 : Thiqaqas is a typical except for lunch.har un oghtiacle naded pa kiaappaaing unaach ntaail 3:30, never a good idea. Hungry, I rushed to the co-op with a friend, where I bought a container of pea soup with kale and a skim milk cappuccino. Still hungry, I opted for hummus and carrots around five. My glucose readings before breakfast were 12q6 and before dinner were 114.a

Pea soup with kale and skim milk cappuccino

Hummus and carrots

Salmon, zucchini noodles with shiitake mushrooms and Brussels sprouts

Day 2: Steel cut oatmeal is my favorite breakfast. High in soluble fiber, it fills me up so I don’t get starved through lunch. For fruit, I usually opt for berries, especially blueberries, which are high in antioxidants. My morning sugar was 105; before lunch was 98.

Halibut, spinach salad with blue cheese, Brussels sprouts

Day 3: You might notice the repetition in my diet, but I think having less choice makes it easier. Although I regularly eat bacon and eggs in restaurants, at home I limit myself to turkey bacon and egg whites. For a little sweetness, I added dried cranberries to my midday spinach salad. I woke up with an 111, with a blood sugar reading of 84 at lunch and 107 before dinner.
