Well you could make Waffles with Whole Grain Flour and use Sugar Free Syrup and lots of Butter. That won't spike your Blood Sugar level.

Is "whole grain" technically a waffle???
Sugar free syrup carries nearly the same carbs.
Sugar free is kind of a gray area....you got carbs and other carb etc....I find the carb count in " sugar free " to be so close to the norm that its not worth it.

From reading what y'all post, and I'm only assuming, but I'm guessing a bunch of you are type2????
There's a big diff in nearly everything from type 1 to type 2.
Don't think I've ever stated, but I'm a insulin dependent type 1.
I use a pump...which is kinda a pain...but it beats 8-12 injections a day.

The fact remains....type 1...type 2....
I still want a big plate of waffles. I like peanut butter and syrup on mine.

this!!!

I know....right?????

Lol....it's all good. It could be worse I suppose.
I refuse to give in....it might not end up all pretty and such....but I'm going to be at the gala. I've earned it I figure.

We all have our crosses to bear. Either medical, emotionable...etc....that's life. It's how heavy you allow them to weigh on you.
Some peeps have no choice with their burden. So far I do and try not to let it dictate my every waking moment.

Enough downer stuff....how bout those BRAVES...:D......gotta love baseball.

If you don't have it.....you don't get it....period.
And a good example of that is.....I have it and I can't fathom what Princess deals with.....and I can't relate to what Danny deals with....etc....

Thats the problem for diabetics. Theres no one treatment for everyone. Diabeties affects everyone differently. What works for some may not work for others. It's a difficult one to treat. But when you finally find somthing that works stay with it.

Hey thats my wife yor talkin about:)

Lol....luckily mama bears is pretty cool with helping me and my diabetes. We still have lots of junk food around, but that's my responsibility to not get into them.

Pretty good day today. Never above 200 and not below 70....40 carb supper.....maybe I can wake up under 200. That's a goal of mine.

Hubby is a bit "too involved". Underfoot while I cook to check ingredients and hovers around while I fingerstick to check and tell me "that's really good" or "that's not good". But I'd rather he be that way than not care.:) At least he's willing to learn to help me.

You did have a good day!:toast:

Family should be involved with this affliction. Nobody should have to go it alone. Support really helps on the down days.

Hold it.....just don't eat cookies and cake. My bad. I keep forgetting how simple it is.

White Rice and White Bread are just as bad. If you were serious I suggest you do some more research.

All in jest my friend....kinda a running theme in the thread.
Been diabetic for 20+ years, grew up from day 1 of my life in a family with a brittle diabetic dad. Kinda have an idea how diabetes works.
Also know that foods that affect 1 diabetic greatly have minimal impact on other diabetics.
My dad lived a very strict and regimented diet, yet he could eat popcorn with minimal impact. A strong breeze would raise his blood sugar....popcorn not so bad. I can't eat popcorn or any corn without sky high blood sugars. Funny huh??? See how fickle that is and how that works?
If you're serious about a "one plan fits all" mentality, I suggest you do some more research.
