Question by girl_in_vernon: What are good staple foods to have at home for people with diabetes?
I have diabetes and usually get a salad for lunch at work and make chicken for dinner. This is my first winter really focusing on my eating and I live in the Northeast, with are first full storm last week I realized that my days of laying around with friends eating popcorn and watching movies may be over on a day off. What do other store in their home’s for those snack attacks.
I’m looking for non-parashiable items for when we get these sudden snow storms.

Answer by FishStory
Popcorn’s fine as a snack – just control the portion and coun the carbs.
Make a big pot of vegatable soup, freeze it in portions and microwave a bowl when you need something. You can use a meat based stock or a veggie stock.
Sugar free hot cocoa
Jelly Belly makes some sugar free jelly beans in a lot of flavors, so you can have a handful and munch on them, like the popcorn.
String cheese is also a nice snacky thing.

Need to stay away from sugar, carbohydrates, etc. Everything in moderation and need to always keep track of your sugar. This is not a death sentence if you keep track of things.

What Sort Of Foods Can A Woman With Gestational Diabetes Eat, What Can’t She Eat?

Alan — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 22:36:37 +0000

I have invited a couple over for a BBQ this weekend. The woman is 36 weeks pregnant and has gestational diabetes. I know she isn’t supposed to eat breads and things of that nature but what else should I avoid. I don’t want her to come over and then not be able to eat anything. Are eggs okay, like deviled eggs? Is steak or chicken better? Cheese okay? I suppose noodles are off limits… I am trying to think of appetizers and such, not just the main course.
Any advice is appreciated!
