Free foods

[Leader of the Banned]

Not sure if y'all are familiar with the term but free foods are what you can eat without taking insulin, such as cucumbers, diet soda, unsweetened coffee or tea, green onions, mushrooms, celery and other foods I can't stand....

Aren't salad greens included in that? I can only eat so much salad!!! I was on the Atkins diet for a while, and burned out really quick! I like cucumbers, though.

Atkin's diet=Kevorkian's diet.

Dont forget to be careful too. When I was diagnosed I was told that as long as it had 5 carbs and only 20 calories that it could be considered free. But after a while I got tired of that and eventually upped it to 10 or 15 carbs because I hated taking shots. Thats where I got in trouble, so just make sure that you keep it to only free foods

(Oh yea and carrots have sugar so be careful not to eat too many at a time)
