Not sure if it's worth mentioning or not, But you could also look up diabetes suitable recipes, I have gestational diabetes and DH and I have been trying different ones. It also means you are not having excessive carbs that turn into sugars too.

I will definitely do this!
My success over the weekend:
Our usual saturday morning treat is morning tea at the cafe before running errands. I didn't add sugar to my cappucino and was surprised to realise that I actually prefer it this way. I also ordered vegemite toast rather than cinnamon toast (oh, dear... now wonder I was gaining weight!!). DS2 stole my toast - he liked the "jam".
I gave our LO plain weetbix and he gobbled them up. When he asked for sauce at dinner to "dip dip" his sausages into, I just said, "no sauce. Yum!!" Andhe ate them!!
17yo DS1 went on an overnight camp and, when offered jam donuts for morning tea he reached for a banana instead....what a boy!!!!
I traded my beloved Vaalia vanilla yoghurt for natural yogurt with half a small banana chopped up.
The most impressive thing though is that I've ignored my leftover dark chocolate easter egg sitting in the pantry.
Little steps.... but I'm proud of us!
