My favorite thing to eat that I can't eat is an everything bagel toasted with cream cheese and lox

With coffee

Or a kaiser roll with butter

I love carbs 😭

But they don't love me back

I'm tired of this unrequited love b.s

Love me carbs 😭 ...love me 🥺

With a schmear of cream cheese?

Have you tried replicating it in a low carb way?

@MarbleMarvel yes ...even low carb options aren't that great for my blood sugars ...I do eat a piece of toast but eatit with with a bunch of protein...it's not the same

A grilled kaiser butter roll is seriously one of my favorite things ever.

I feel you Prip. I didn't even realize just how much I absolutely love and crave carbs and bread until I lived an extremely remote lifestyle and had very limited access to a market. The first time I went a month or so without bread and pasta I lost it.
Not quite the same since I could eat them, but I get how intense the craving is when denied.

@MethDozer I've tried things too ...it's just not worth it to me ...injecting insulin every hour and drinking a ton of water just to get my blood sugars down ...ugh

@pripyatamusementpark how long has it been for you? Did you take insulin was a kid and then or is it something that came with adulthood?

Mine is cereal with milk. I was diagnosed as being pre diabetic. The diabetes nurse told me that cereal with milk was the absolute worst thing people could eat in morning.

@Musicman Ugh...it's true

@pripyatamusementpark Some days I really miss having a bowl of cereal. Sometimes when I worked late I would come home and have a bowl of cereal then go to bed. I never dreamed how bad it was for me.
