no. it is not a dud thread. it is the weekend. everyone is resting.

i haven't eaten bread in well over a year. now that i have started using fast acting insulin, i am adding in very small amounts of bread into my diet.

i choose burgens seed and nut bread. it has 17.7g of carbs for 2 slices.

i have 1/2 a slice or 1 slice sometimes. i toast it and spread it with a TBSP of peanut butter. so 7-14g of carbs. 1-2u of NR and it works real well.

on friday night i cooked bbq chicken burgers. i had a burger with 2 slices of burgen bread, onions, ketchup etc. before dinner i was 4.8 (86). 2 hours after i was 6.4 (115). i bolused with 3u of NR.

by most standards i am still very low carb. but i am enjoying a small amount of the right type of bread.
