some cereals are actually ok(special k, shredded wheat, kashi, etc), the ones with a lot of fiber. the only problem with those cereals is the potassium(theres a lot of it, and that is not good if youre on blood pressure medicine).

Even if I could deal with a high fiber cereal, the milk gets me. Dairy seems to be my downfall......ice cream.

Starches, any of them, all of them, same thing every time. I had breaded calamari at one of my favorite Italian restaurants on Tuesday and my BG average is still higher than it usually is. Dextrose and Maltodextrin that's hidden in artificial sweetners will do it to me also.

I avoid refined grains -- but lately I'm finding that even whole grains will elevate my blood glucose levels and leave them there for long periods of time. I need to figure out what micronutrients we get from grains... breads and pastas a big trigger for me... if I have to give them up I want to know what supplements I might need to take.

Hi Marie:
I love sushi too....I don't think there are many carbs....high in protein...just don't eat the white rice....I really don't think its bad for you....its just the amount of saki you consume...(rice wine)....lots-a-carbs.....also the "fried" sushi....sashimi ?? is high in carbs. I usually bolus too much and end up having to have ice cream or something !!!

Pizza. And it's very unpredictable...my BG stays normal for about 2 hours and then starts rising erratically...I have never figured out how to correct for pizza.
