This is from the Diabetes Australia site…you seem to be trying to find information from what you have said here on the forum. I definitely think you should ask your GP for a care plan and referrals and at least once see an educator and a dietician instead of trying to sort through the internet stuff yourself. They will be able to tailor it to you specifically much more efficiently.

Thanks very much for that. I hadn’t seen that page. I had been kludging around in there trying to understand how to get a good diet. (I had though I had an overall good diet, but it seems I can make a few changes to improve it.)

Your diet, from what you say here, seems to be fine. But I am not a professional on this. There is not the emphasis on “forbidden” foods that there once was for diabetics. It’s more on variety and not over doing things.

It did sound to me as though Michael was thinking he had to restrict his range of foods more than is normally advised.
