I Wish Restaurants Would Consider Diabetic Friendly Meals On Their Menus. I Wish There Were Restaurants That Would Listen to The Diabetic Population.
They cost too much for them but I agree it’s hard to eat out and get clean food
it's an Startup idea
Read my mind
Well you can look up the carbs of what you're eating. That's what I do
@@skinnydee1886 lol. a new Asian restaurant opened in my town. I went thinking I could get a vegetarian-like dish. nope. everything was served with white rice, was breaded, or was just yuck.
Thank you. I don't have diabetes or prediabetes, but up to 80% of us still get blood sugar spikes. I do. But they are waning in frequency and strength. Even to the point of disappearing. But I still act to prevent diabetes.
Shotgun pellets may hit what a bullet misses. What I mean is that a combination of methods is surely better that only one. So, I have learned to take a teaspoon or two of vinegar in a half cup of water within 30 minutes before eating. Rinse your mouth afterward to protect tooth enamel. Then eat veggies first, protein second and minimal carbohydrates last. Drinking a glass of water is also said to lower blood sugar. I wait for 1 hour after a meal before having coffee, as it can otherwise deplete iron, which only induces fatigue and compounds the fatigue caused by a blood sugar spike. I add a half teaspoon of cinnamon to the coffee as well. It is known to lower blood sugar.
Some 30 minutes after a meal I do 40 squats, 40 push-ups and 40 pull-ups on a 45-degree machine I have. Or I sometimes just run on the spot (stationary running) for a few minutes instead. I have read that blood sugar is beneficially taken from the blood for the muscles when we exercise. I also add some simple acupressure moves that are featured for diabetics here on UA-cam by a Japanese lady. UA-cam search 'acupressure diabetes' to find it.
Magnesium is also reported to be helpful in quelling blood sugar spikes. But since magnesium has multiple health benefits, I also take it.
Cooking, refrigerator cooling, and then reheating rice and potatoes also lowers their glycemic index. Or, the cooled potatoes can be eaten with salad instead of reheating. Bread can also be put in the refrigerator and then toasted. Both cooling and toasting bread lowers its glycemic index. Feeling great. Get proactive and prevent diabetes. Or lower your condition into reverse in only a few months. Win yourself that prize!
Hey there Tom! I came across your channel and wanted to congratulate you on the tremendous job you are doing to impact lives in such an awesome way. I sincerely send my well wishes of GOOD HEALTH to you and everyone within your community! I agree with you 100%, healthy nutrition is definitely a key factor, which requires us to modify traditional recipes; we can replace sugars with sweeteners that are proven not to spike glucose & blood sugar levels, reduce carbs, and totally substitute refined flours and bread products with tasty low carb alternatives. We can still enjoy delicious meals while eating healthy. Stay blessed and healthy my friend! 💖
As always Tom you make such a difference in so many lives! Thank you again for sharing your time, knowledge, and wisdom!!!
My pleasure! Thanks for your kind feedback!
I am an extremely insulin resistant type 2 diabetic. Any person with any type of diabetes should eat like this! Thank you!
You should always test your glucose and see what it do with your bloodsugars. I cannot eat bread and i cannot even eat cheese.
So now i eat carnivore, the cleanest way of keto. And this helps me to to get my glucose down. For years i have used insilin and now i am insulin-free for 17 months.
Thank you for sharing! Glad you found the thing that works for you!
Really? But chesse does not raise your Glucose .
@@jacquelinewalker2828
That was what i also thought, but my bloodsugarmeter tells me that it does raise.
It go slowly up.
When i do not eat cheese, i stay around 6.0 and whwn i eat chees every day, afther a week my glucose rise to sometimes 12.0
Dr. Ken D. Berry has the same problem.
@@MrsPorseleintje too much protein raises blood sugar.
@@rubinanaveed7735
Yes, i know.
I do not eat that much proteïn. Cheese is the only thing that raise my bloodsugar. I eat OMAD.
Excellent recipes! For the Tuna Salad: Remember to look at the ingredients of your pickles. Especially in the US, those contain A Lot of added sugar or (the horror) artificial sweeteners, maybe not the best choice to add as a juice to the salad. In countries where the pickles are actually fermented (some EU countries) the juice is safe, healthy and delicious.
You can also add canned cod liver to the salad, for some added omegas.
For the cauliflower: I like to toss that in the airfryer. Crispy goodness!
wow, i just found this video and i love it... i am type 2 because i gained 30 pounds over the pandemic, went on Rybelsus and lost the 30 and trying to lose more and eat better, so i love your ideas about these delicious meals... sharing this with friends... thank you so much... love xoxo
I really like these, considering that it’s so hard to eat healthy when I’m tried in the morning and I automatically choose something pre-packaged from the fridge. These look very simple to do even when I’m tired!!
Check into freezer meals. We can't do prepackaged food since my husband had a heart attack. I do freezer meals, so anyone can cook it. Pop in oven and done.
I do a chopped salad with avocado, Roma tomato and cucumber and carrot (peeling skin off cucumber and carrot), romaine lettuce, garlic, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper and garlic powder (I love garlic). I can eat this daily and love that I don't have to heat up the kitchen cooking. I sometimes add other things especially fruits like chopped apple if I am out of avocado and lemon juice.
Thanks for sharing!!
I'm a type 1 diabetic without insulin (for now). I recently found out that any salad combined with olives, garlic, feta, tuna, walnuts, cucumber and roma tomatoes makes a very tasty combination even without any dressing. It also contains a ton of calories thanks to a lot of healthy fats and there are only very small amounts of carbs in the nuts/cucumber/tomatoes. All ingredients are supposed to contain substances that help suppress inflammation (in case you hope to protect what's left of the pancreas) and improve cardiovascular health.
Sounds great. No oil, which is great.
@@angelwings7930 Oil/fat is an essential part of daily food intake. Avocado, walnut, olive oil are good choices.
I eat low carb. My favorite low carb meal is Roasted Cauliflower, jerk chicken, and avocado salad
That sounds good..👍👍👍👍
Cauliflower can raise acid uric. To anyone that got high acid uric, not recommended 🙏. Avocado salad👍👍.
@@alphainitium5737 WOW!! THANK YOU for that!
WHY am I getting high uric acid? Does it have to do with the diabetes?
jerk chicken some kinda processed meat that'll make your colon get cancer
I've been trying to learn dishes to cook for my father to help with his blood sugar and had no idea where to start but your video really helped. Thank you for making this!
I’m currently dealing with this sadly with my father too type 2 diabetic I was just wondering if theses meals work for your father? I wanna make them for mine I just wanna make sure it’s actually safe for him you know and I hope your father is doing well:)
Thanks, this recipe with avocado and tomatoes, it is really delicious! I am not diabetic at this moment, but I struggle with high insulin, and I need to reduce carbs, finding alternatives how to feed myself. And your channel will help me with that!
Thanks, Tom, for having such an awesome channel. You are always uplifting and informative in your videos and comments, and you are very kind and encouraging in the comments of fellow diabetic youtubers. It is so great to see!
Thank you so much!
Hi there,
what kind of bread you're using?
please let us know.
Thanks 👍
ahhh thank you. I've been trying to find more meal combo for ages.
Really appreciate this as a former type-2 trying to keep things healthy.
Dude I want you to know you are awesome and legitimately saving my life with your tips my sugars are getting way better taking advice from you
Great to hear your sugars are getting better! Thanks so much for your kind words my friend!
@@TypeOneTalks always my dude u are so cool for helping people like this
It is such an awesome thing to witness Tom share his personal experience and knowledge that he has gained along his journey of managing his diabetes. I couldn't agree more with Tom... healthy nutrition is a key factor. Eating healthy doesn't have to mean all our favorite meals are off limits. We can learn how to modify recipes to eliminate sugars and utilize sweeteners that are proven not to spike glucose & blood sugar levels, reduce carbs, and totally replace refined flours and bread products with tasty low carb alternatives. Stay healthy my friend! 💖
Just started following you because I have recently begun wearing a Freestyle Libre 2 monitor. Have gotten more tips on the monitor from you than the doctor. My husband and I stay under 30 carbs a day. I am always looking for delicious low carb recipes. Thank you.
Welcome aboard! Thanks so much for your kind words. I really appreciated. All the best to you and your husband!
One meal I like is to get your muffin tin and add bits of meat (cooked chicken etc) small pieces of vegetables and then add eggs beaten together with milk to fill almost to the top. Sprinkle some grated edam cheese on top an d then bake them. Eat warm or let cool completely and store in the fridge. They make a great breakfast or add some salad and have them for lunch.
Thank you for sharing this video with me. I will try and make some of them because they look delicious. They are prepared with many of the foods that I like.
THANK YOU
i am a type 1 diabetic since 2013 and this is really helping me
thank you man
You are most welcome my friend! All the best!
This was super helpful! My dad has diabetes so we have to learn/do research on what foods he can/not eat (that’s also VERY tasty).
Thanks! I am type 2. And your cgm videos saved me lots of frustration. Love your videos, and the accent. Keep doing what you do. I like that you gave options for carb or no carb as everyone is different, on a daily basis. Keep up the great work!
Jesus bless ya
@@lowca6457
Who's that
omg...diced avocado with tomato salad is so good and I also add diced onions. Fried eggs are great but boiled eggs are better for diabetics. Thank you so much for sharing. I am looking for ideas on meals to take to work.
Thank you so much for theses!! I’m trying to control my insulin more since I’m at high risk. Can’t explain how helpful theses videos have been
Just discovered your channel. I am going to watch every single one of your videos.
Awesome! Thank you so much! Welcome to the team!
Thanks for making this video. I am on a low carb diet too. I love cauliflower rice as it’s versatile, cheap and so delicious. Stay healthy everyone! Much love from 🇸🇬 Singapore.
How are you doing since 1 year you made that comment?
Thank you for sharing these recipes , they look delicious!
New subscriber. Getting the family healthier after the holiday season. Thank you so much for this great information. Happy holidays.
I just made the green curry soup! But... red! I didn't have green curry. So I used red curry paste and it came out so delicious! I served it over some cauliflower rice! 😋
Thank you for the idea!
Wonderful! I am glad you enjoyed it. The cauliflower rice sounds like a really good idea!
I just found out I'm at a high risk for diabetes so this has definitely helped. Thank you!
Hey there. I was having trouble with my BS I went keto and now no longer have that problem Hope that works for you as well.
Awesome! There's an app! My grandpa's diabetes has been very problematic for the whole family so I'm planning on cooking delicious low carb low potassium meals
Wow I am really impressed in your food choices. Really like them. Thank you.
Outstanding information!!
Tom. My mouth is watering watching this. Excellent and a bit different with some of your recipes. Beats snacking on rubbish and not very filling convience foods. I'm going to give these a go. Thanks.
Hope you will enjoy! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for these recipes
Favorite low carb dish: eggs, cheese, butter and whatever vegetables I have around (peppers, onions, broccoli, etc)
I loved the zucchini and chicken meatballs. I’ll have to try that!
For anyone in the US looking to make these recipes, please note that the coriander here is what we call cilantro. In the US, the only coriander we have is the seed, the herb of the plant is called cilantro. On another note, I have had type 1 for about 13 years now and have been low carb from the beginning. I would still need to bolus for these meals, even though they are low carb. I think once I started ketosis, I noticed that I needed to bolus for protein and fat even with minimal carbs. Of course, I don't need to bolus very much, maybe 3-5 units depending on how much protein is in the meal. If one is not low carb, I am pretty sure that they probably would not need to bolus. These look very tasty! Especially the chicken curry soup!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and also clarification on cilantro. That is a great point. Since I moved out of the US (5 years ago) I have started cilantro coriander so that the locals in Switzerland understand me:) My apologies for confusion of the US viewers!
What is bolus?
@@nunyabizness3642 a bolus is a dose of insulin.
@@julilla1 ahhh....thank you!
I thought what u call cilantro we call rocket
Many thanks.I am making healthier choices that are delicious,thanks to you!!
Thanks for sharing your tips I love all your food looks delicious simple to prepare my favorite is califlower with chicken thanks 🙏 for sharing my friend ❣️
I'm actually on my wife's phone had an accident with mine anyway I love to cook but a few years ago my wife was diagnosed type 2 and theses meals are exactly the things she likes thank you and you're right pickle juice with the thousand island really does take it to another level!! Looking forward to more

If you liked this video, you may also want to know that The way that sugar affects the gut depends upon quantity and your individual health. If you’re struggling with candida, for example, sugar can make your symptoms worse!
Hello Tom! Recently found your channel. Loving all the info you are sharing. Very relevant to me as a 30+ year Type 1 who started CGM 3 years ago and insulin pump 1 year ago. Technology has opened my eyes and armed me with information I need to start managing better. Love the recipes. You should do a few more videos like this. Answerd Klinio App questionnaire, but got "server error" when I tried to get my plan and purchase. Just wondering if others are having same problem. Keep up the good work! Your videos are full of useful info and I think you should have a MUCH bigger audience.
....and can you share your favorite brand of protein bread? Haven't tried any brands yet, but during my research I found many brands out there that look unappealing....like cardboard. Yours in the video looks delicious!
Nice one tom
Your doing a fantastic job
Thank you for your time and effort in making these vids.
Thank you so much for your kind words my friend. Wishing you all the best!
❤ thank you from Oakdale Minnesota. I will start eating your recipes. Simple and sound delicious!

Thank you so much for your kind words my friend! I will try to accept this challenge and make more food related videos! Greetings to the whole family! All the best!
I am grateful for the meal suggestions. I try to keep my meals 6, 12, 12 carbs per meal. Doing that I do not need any meds and my blood sugars stays 79 - 100.
Of course that means I can not have the bread, but I feel so much better for not having it.
Totally agree. Thank you for watching and sharing your experience Victoria!
I just discovered Sola bread, I think it's 3 net carbs per slice. Maybe you could try that? If you get bread cravings. I can get it at my Walmart but it sells out fast. The slices are smaller than other breads, it is not made with almond flour, I don't like almonds, so it tastes good to me, I think it's made from some kind of bean? You can Google it. It's under $5 for a loaf, cheaper than other breads that CLAIM to be diabetic friendly but full of carbs.
@@cindygardner251 Sola bread at Walmart is $22.99 for 2 loaves.
New diabetic here can u explain what u mean by 6 12 12?
wont you get into Keto then keeping that low carbs?
Thanks a lot for recipies!Super!
Hello! I just found your channel when I was looking for recipes to reverse/prevent to develop type 2! I like your recipes and will definitely try the meatballs 😊
Just read that this is your first food video. It was great and inspiring. Made my mouth water to think I could have these delicious foods. Also liked your suggestions on how to add carbs on days when you're eating carbs. My comfort zone for steady blood glucose is eating low carb. I am recently ketoacidosis prone so my docs don't want in ketosis very often. Still working out what I can eat without going too high. Hitting subscribe and hoping you share more like this. I 'll also be checking out your stuff prior to this. 🌻
Hi Laurie. Thank you so much for your kind words and sharing your story. Welcome to the team:)
I actually have another food video coming up this weekend. I realized the first one became quite popular so I decided to do more. Stay tuned:)
I eat low carb 20 gr a day, no sugar ever and meat, fish. Etc and green veggies , duck eggs. My favorite meal is rare steak with steamed broccoli and steamed cauliflower. I also love Chayote apple fritters. Keto
Thanks for sharing my friend!
I am on a low carb diet too. I hate cauliflower but I LOVE broccoli. Thanks from Richmond VA USA.
I enjoy finding ways to make food both tasty and healthy for myself as to not always having to just eat plain salad or certain meals that just have no flavor. I tried the fried cauliflower rice with carrots, onions, garlic and sweet peas mix it with some bit of low soy sauce and a pinch of salt all cooked together in a pan and it was delicious then what i expected.
Tom is so faithful and committed in making a difference for so many people who are managing diabetes. Healthy nutrition is a key factor in the journey to good health. I happen to agree with you 100% regarding bland food! The good news is we don't have to forsaken delicious taste and flavor... we can eat healthy and still enjoy many of our favorite dishes by modifying traditional recipes. Substitute sugars with sweeteners that won't spike your blood sugar levels, reduce carbs, and eliminate refined flours and bread products by replacing these items with tasty low carb alternatives. Stay healthy my friend! 💖
My favorite meal is a loaded salad, romaine lettuce, tomatoes, dill pickles, 2 pickled hard boiled quail eggs, blue cheese, green & black olives, jalapenos, croutons, sometimes a baked chicken breast or baked salmon. Red wine vinegar & olive oil dressing.
Your diet is full of high sodium foods. Dill pickles. Pickled eggs. Black olives. Blood sugar might look good, but blood pressure might increase.
Croutons? Not good for diabetics. Let Mike the glucose meter determine which foods are good for u as a diabetic or prediabetic.
Please can we have vegetables meal as same of are vegetarians Thank you sir 🙏🙏🙏🌹😄
Mmmm looks so yummilicious!! 😋😋😋
Thanks for the meal suggestions Tom. Must try!
Hope you enjoy!
I just found out Im type 2 last Friday. Thank you for your recipes. Im trying hard to reverse my diabetes. God bless us all.❤
If you go vegan and cut carbs it can reverse.
I need to try your tuna salad w Thousand Island dressing. Sounds amazing! 😋
Thank you so much for your videos I need all the info I can get my A1C IS 15.9
Hey Jennifer I would encourage you to get the libre system to check your blood sugars I went from an 11.5 to a 6.6 just with that meter alone I promise it will help you

And using lantus 22 unit
Great meals!! Thank you for the info!!! ❤
Love your channel I just subscribe. Thanks for your recipes. I am not diabetic but I love healthy cooking. 👍👍👍🙏
Unfortunately I do eat carbohydrate, rice is all time favourite food, can't live without it 😫
We must have some carbs,
but it is important not to eat them too much at once. And it is important what type of carbs you eat. Oats, integral pasta or rice, kus kus, beans,some fruit...that and many other carbs are good for us. I take 30 or 45 g of carbs at one meal and my a1c (or HbA1c) is 5.7. And I have normal weight. Good luck!
I'm looking for a substantial bread for toasting with very, very low carbs, any suggestions?
Ezekiel Bread has a low glycemic index.
We eat Aldis bread. Dense but will do when toasted they also have buns.
Schmidt’s brand sliced bread. Carbs low. Fiber high.
Sola keto bread
@@Jcccc777 Thank you Jenny
Hi Tom , great work . Just what I m looking for .
Beautiful recipes I am pre-diabetic and I don't enjoy breakfast anymore because my meals are boring I will try the site and your recipes I love veggies so that's a win any ideas about water it taste nasty after awhile..👍🏾
I pretty much gave up bread but I found Liv life bread (3.4g CHO per slice plus 4g fibre) and a Hovis low carb bread (9g CHO per slice plus 4.1 g fibre) in the U.K. so surely there must be an equivalent for sale in Switzerland? I can have peanut butter or cheese on toast pancreas guilt free YAY'
Yes. There is actually! I eat it too from time to time. Doesn’t spike my sugars much.
@@TypeOneTalks I Thank all the Rabbits everywhere (I don’t believe in god but I do believe in the goodness of rabbits!) I have so MISSED toast with cheesy/peanutty stuff on it (still waiting on a guilt free jam though!).
I have never seen Ezekiel bread in the U.K.
Any whole foods store.
@@palapalak.8907 I have been using wholefood stores for a long time & never seen Ezekiel bread in any U.K. store..
Those chicken and zucchini meatballs look really good and they are different from anything else I have seen. I always have zucchini and chicken on hand, so I will be trying this out soon. Thank you so much.
I love your channel, I have learned so much from you! The Zucchini and chicken meatballs look amazing, so does the curry soup! I will have to try those!! I have been obsessed with Kojnac noodle dishes recently. Kojnac noodles only have 2 carbs per serving with 2 grams of fiber, so ZERO net carbs and only 5 calories! They are a great ramen noodle replacement for diabetics.
How about coconut milk, it has high calories. Thank you
Yes, it is high in calories but low in carbs. This video is about low carbs so that you don't spike glucose.
Type 2 are more interested in carbs than calories.
I'm type 2 diabetic so low carb is must. I'm not overweight at all so I'm not too concerned about calories, just carbs.
My favorite salad is tomato cucumber avocado salad.
Very simple and easy to throw together.
Lots of tomatoes (because I LOVE tomatoes) mini or English cucumber and avocado all cut into bite size pieces. Dress with olive oil, fresh squeezed lemon juice, salt and pepper. Easy peasy...but Oh my goodness how delicious 😋
Hi Linda. That sounds yummy. Thank you for sharing!
Trying to eat low carb. couldn’t do keto. Loved the recipes and am going to make them.
Oh that Curry looks good. They all look good thank you I must try them.
What kind of bread is that? I thought diabetics can’t have bread? I appreciate you sharing these recipes. They look good...thanks 👍👍👍
Diabetic’s can eat Whole Grain Bread
@@lindaguida4074 ok thank you..👍👍👍
@@Mary20002 Dave’s bread is a good option
@@lindaguida4074 Some diabetics, who have very mild diabetes, or who do a lot of exercise maybe, can have moderate quantities of bread.
However, basically meals which include bread, oats, rice, potatoes etc are not low in carbohydrates & usually if you have diabetes you need to eat a diet that is low in carbohydrates. I used to eat wholemeal bread daily but do not seem able to do so any more & now it is something I allow myself to have one slice of as a treat, but not everyday.
It is annoying & the variation in the information available I find confusing but I guess it is the same as everything else, people & the conditions they have vary considerably. The advice would be, I guess, is that you need to go by your test results. If your blood sugar tests come back OK & what you eat is nutritious, I guess you are eating appropriately.
There is a channel called Beat Diabetes, where the presenter eats different foods & tests his blood-sugar before & after so you can get an idea of the effect of different foods from that. Also looking up the amount of carbohydrates that are in different foods can be helpfull.
I was given advice by a qualified dietician that a lunch of a wholemeal bread, whole egg sandwich, with salad was a healthy meal for someone with diabetes but the tests I have had indicate otherwise. So go by test results not well meaning advice.
@@sarahstrong7174 thank you so much💐
I'm afraid your meals won't work for those of us who eat a low carb diet. They contain too much produce and too little meats and way too little fats. I allow myself two half cup servings of very low carb fresh vegetables per day with a total carb count of 12 or less daily. Your servings are too large and tomatoes and peppers are medium carb foods that need to be limited in amounts served. You should never eat regular bread. One carb per slice protein bread is acceptable and in some areas keto bread with zero carbs is available. My normal diet is eggs and pork for breakfast although on occasion I make one carb per cake pancakes. Lunches if I eat them are any of a variety of foods(sardines, tuna, salmon, chicken, cheese, boiled eggs). Dinner is a meat or seafood and two half cup servings of low carb vegetables. Tonight is going to be pizza. Crisp crust made from eggs and cheese and prebaked, covered with a tbl or two of low carb pasta sauce, pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, black olives, a small amount of peppers and onions, olive oil and both mozzarella and parm cheese. Tastes as good as anything you can buy at the pizza place and fresh made in a short time in my kitchen. Your ideas are good but need a bit of adjustment to get the vegetables reduced and meats and fats increased to be far healthier meals. The smaller produce amounts will also help with weight reduction if needed to reduce insulin requirements.
So don’t eat it? Create your own channel.
It’s a little presumptuous to criticize someone who has taken the time to produce content for diabetics that is both delicious, varied, and spot on for those who just want to avoid the dreaded glucose spike.
It is never a one size fits all, which anyone monitoring their blood sugar knows by now.
@@truth-alwayswins I'm not criticizing you I'm simply trying to correct an unhealthy diet plan. Low glycemic is not the best way to eat for diabetes. Low carb will do far more to maintain your health. And the more you need to control diabetes the more you need to eat fats in your diet to provide energy that you're lacking on a low sugar diet. Butter, eggs, cheese should be included in every days meal plan. All vegetables should be reduced and replaced with meats and seafoods. Ultimately for many people a carnivore diet is the most healthy way to eat for a diabetic. The emphasis should always be on meats and vegetables should be a minor part of meals.
thank you we really need this
Thank you for this video they all look delicious
Telling people they can have bread and rice is dumb🙈
Thanks for the feedback. Noted.
Moderation in all all things.
@@TypeOneTalks I don't think it is dumb. Most foods can be eaten in moderation and balanced with meds and exercise. You never said to have a whole plate of rice
Thanks for the video man!!
Since you mentioned cocktail sauce here is an appetizer I'm sure you will like. Take a whole avocado and slice a bit of the bottom so it sits upright. Then cut the top to reveal the seed. Pull out the seed and then fill the cavity with cocktail sauce and place the fat ends of three cold boiled shrimp tails in the sauce so the fat ends are in the sauce but the rest is upright. Eat the shrimp and use extra cocktail sauce to mix with the avocado and eat and enjoy. A nice low carb shrimp cocktail.
Also, if you have an Aldi's near you, it is a great source for berries all year. My breakfasts usually consists of strawberries, blue berries, black berries, and raspberries in yogurt lightly flavored with honey. Also I buy their sausge egg and cheese bisquits that come four to a package for an occasional treat with black coffee.
Hi Tom. I've recently adopted your items into my Meal Plans for my Weightlifting & Bodybuilding program & I'd be grateful if I could get a breakdown of the Macros (proteins / fats / carbs per serving) of each of the recipes here - I'm particularly fond of the Green Chicken Curry Soup & the Chicken & Zucchini Meatballs. Please & Thank You.
Just delightful! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm Type 2 but I like your ideas. They will definitely help me with my recipe ideas.
Thank you so much for your kind words my friend.
My go-to for those with financial scarcity is bowl layered with 3 scrambled eggs, handful of boiled vegetables, and sliced microwaved sausage on top.
Thanks so much for the menus you are awesome
I tried two of these recipes yesterday and my blucon didnt give me a speech alert, so my sugars were in perfect range. Thanks
my favorite low carb meal is avocado salad. and thank you
Thank u for this menu I appreciate it
TY!I tried that Indian Style Cauliflower and it's excellent!
Thanks for the help I just got diagnosed as a diabetic yesterday so I’m trying to adjust
Welcome to the team! Wishing you all the best!
Great breakfast idea. I have changed mind based on what you are eating. And I am not starving.
Hi Tom, love those recipes ❣️
Been watching your videos for a few weeks now and I have to say they're very informative. Eggs and Avocados have become a staple for me since I got diagnosed. Can I ask where you get your bread?
These recipes look divine.
I Like your suggested Ideas Tom!
Hi Tom Just subscribed to your chanel I'm a diabetic, hearing you talk for first time and share such great knowledge thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words my friend.
Cool! As being a nine year old diabetic (diagnosed in march of this year) this will help a ton. I will try eating this stuff for 1 day and see how it goes. Thanks
Maybe get your parent to help you since you’re only 9 years old.
@@Droosmom1970 I will.
My blood sugar is pretty high right now 😅
