I am having a salad for dinner right now (it goes nicely with my pork chop, mashed potatoes, and Nestle's Quik!).

Yummy ... I do love Nestle's Quik but I buy Ovaltine because it's healthier. Enjoy Huk!

Sounds like a yummy salad Scoot!!

If I want to drink healthier, I would just drink water. When I want chocolate milk, it has to be really really brown! YUM!

I like tofurkey!

Today I had asparagus risotto with freshly grated parmesan cheese. And I ate a GIANT amount. More than usual. I'm still stuffed!! Yum! (And yeah, today I cheated... Trader Joe's frozen risotto. Easy and yummy.)

Please let me give you a quick tip about dieting. Don't ever eat potatoes again if you want to lose weight. A baked potato turns to sugar faster and more than eating 3 brownies. I know because I did the experiment with my blood sugar meter. I figure if I'm going to ruin my blood sugar its going to be with chocolate and not potatoes. Just an FYI.

This is called the glycemic index. And although the GI for a potato is higher than a milk chocolate candy bar, there are other things to take into account such as your own blood sugar level when you eat the item.

You also have to consider the nutritional value of the item. For example, a baked potato (no toppings) is a good source of fiber, potassium, Vitamins B and C, is low in fat, and actually contains protein. Chocolate, while providing antioxidant benefits, can be high in fat and sodium, and provides minimal protein benefit. And I think milk chocolate's glycemic index isn't too far off that of a potato.

There are times when you want your blood sugar to rise quickly (ask an athlete).

Since you're monitoring your blood sugar, I'd question whether someone who has "normal" insulin readings would have the same results?

And Twinks???? Um... you ate three brownies in one sitting? LOL! (I don't think I could do that even if I wanted to. And I'm a chocoholic!)

baked potato soup w/cheese and bacon, 2 bites of my salad cuz the soup was so good, and a diet pepsi.

Twinkie my hubby can eat all the potatoes he wants, and his sugar doesn't seem to raise much. But give him pizza - wow! His grandma can eat pizza, bread, potatoes no problem. Give her an apple and her sugar sky rockets. Me my blood sugar goes out the roof if I eat vegetables other than potatoes, corn, and canned green or wax beans.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!!!!

All of my diabetes doctors and the nutritionist told me to eat nothing white especially white bread and potatoes. So of course I had to check it out.
