In general, try to stay away from pre-packaged foods, white flour items, and high-sugar and high-fat items. Veggies are always good. Be careful with fruit because of the natural sugars.

I suggest checking in with a nutritionist/dietician and/or a diabetes educator so they can tailor a meal plan based on your likes and dislikes and also based on the amount of carbs your doctor has recommended for you.

Good luck!

JoJo- have you tried to look at the recipes on this site. There are a good variety for you, also feel free to look at the cookbooks. Best of luck to you :)

Is there a site where you could put in a food and it give you the carb count-I have a book, but that would be so convenient-

How many carbs should you stay within, per meal?
