I struggle with diabetes too and cutting the carbs does make a difference. Hmmmm just reading about your BLT makes me want to make one. Best wishes on your goals for October and maybe I will treat myself to a BLT this week.

I sure do look forward to my BLT! Even after a year, I'm surprised at how much I enjoy that sandwich. So my advice is find a food or meal you love and find a way to fit it into your meal plan. My BLT has 2 slices 40 cal 12 grain toast, 2T lite mayo, 2 slices ready cooked bacon, a tomato and lettuce. I finish out my meal with an apple. Sweet! I do a happy dance at lunch and then I'm ready to sew!
