Diabetes Type 2 Support Group

Type 2 Diabetes is a condition in which the body either does not produce enough insulin or does not make efficient use of it. Insulin is a hormone needed to convert food into glucose, a sugar that the body uses for energy. Without enough insulin, glucose can accumulate in the blood, and can cause serious health problems such as heart disease and strokes and organ damage...

I just discovered your recipe list! How great! I can't wait to try some of these!

Does anyone have a pecan pie recipe for diabetics?

When it says Splenda in the recipe, is that the kind you get in the boxes for baking vs the little packets? Dumb question, I k now.

There is no dumb question dear. Yes, use the baking splenda.

PS.... I put you a recipe for the pie on the recipe board.

just remember to watch the carb count for a serving, if need be, eat only 1/2 serving

heart2222 06/16/2014

That's exactly what I have been doing. Thx!

Hello, everyone! I like hot food. When I saw my dietician, she told me to put a little fiber power on each meal. Over time, orange fiber powder on everything, got old.

What I started to do was take empty spice jars and fill them with my own spice blends that contained a percentage of fiber powder. The one item that I did not add to these mixes is salt.

I have a blend for eggs, for salads, for meats, oatmeal, etc.

I am on a high fiber diet so I just drink the Metamucil 3 times a day. I get about 28-32 grams of fiber every morning in my breakfast smoothie..... so the rest of the day is a snap..LOL

I made Thai chicken soup yesterday-first time and it turned out great!

Today it's an Asian noodle salad with lots of veggies

Glad I have the time to do this!
