Becky, thanks for the link. I am experimenting daily with what works for
him
and not. Since the quack didn't tell us, I figure about three hours after
eating, run a test and see how badly we messed up and what we figure we
could cut out.
I got some wheat flour and will give pancakes a shot. Ordered some maple
syrup online made with Splenda. Soon as it arrives we'll give it a try.
Will let you know if it was worth the $6 shipping charges.

Pancakes are probably a no no, except perhaps for later in the day. I can
only eat 2 - 3" pancakes at one time with some no carb syrup and no other
food at that meal or I'd be over my fat/protein allowance. Frankly, that
little food wouldn't be enough for me. I've had much better luck with
French Toast, although I don't care for any of the sugar free syrups. They
are too watery for me, so this isn't something I've eaten in a while. As
for the "whole wheat", you are right to go in that direction because it has
more fiber. But if you merely buy something labeled "whole wheat flour" you
probably aren't getting anything that is much better than white flour in
terms of fiber. You need to actually use the whole grain. I've been buying
some whole grain bread from Pepperidge Farms that has only 11 g of carb per
slice and something like 3-4 g of fiber per slice.
