Default Wheat flour etc.

Thanks Bill, I figure if there is none left over after a small portion, he
can't eat it? Sure is a learning experience.
I wish his Doc had given s more information. When I asked what he could and
could not eat, he told me to go to the Library and read up on it? I think I
am shopping for a different Doc.
The gal at the pharmacy taught me how to use the test meter? I really feel
he got cheated.

My husband is a newly diagnosed Type 2 Diabetic. I am wondering where in

New
Jersey I can get flour and pasta made of whole wheat. He is a pasta nut

and
I know he will appreciate it. He misses this the most.


Whole wheat flour has just as many carbs as regular flour. The only

benefit is
the added fiber. (too much fiber for my taste)
Your husband is going to have to buckle down like the rest of us. He

doesn't
have to give up pasta. However he certainly needs to watch the portion

sizes as
well as the effects on his BG levels.

Good luck
Bill
