Default Sugar alcohols

Is this acceptable for type 2s or it just as bad for us as regular sugary carbs?

Several products used the Sugar Alcohol when sugar free first started and many of the products contained sorbitol. They seem to work, but beware that that if you over indulge they can have a laxative effect.

Hi

It's still carbs.

Kinda attractive, sweet and oh so satisfying. But,

NO!
Wait a minute!!!!!

It is still Carbs!

There is no getting away from it.

I have learnt to enjoy "good" lettuce.

Of course.....

It took some time ;-)

Still, I am now Thin, which has benefits other than Health related ones.

So as all the best Cop movies say
"Move on please, there is nothing to see here...."

Good luck with the Lettuce.

PS grow your own lettuce, it increases the yumminess 1000%
