A 1/4 cup serving of almonds contains 8 grams of protein. Almonds have a lower saturated fat content and are a great way for vegetarians to get protein.
7. Peanut Butter
Peanut butter is a high source of protein as well. 30 grams of peanut butter contain 7.5 grams of protein. Although peanut butter is a food that is higher in fat, when added to a vegetarian diet in moderation, it will help to meet the daily recommendation of protein.

My problem is weight gain, no matter what I do, I just keep gaining. Every pound is so bad for my blood sugar. Is there a special diet for someone like me who has no thyroid???
Try and
think of eating a little bit every 4 hours as avoiding a blood sugar dip.
Even a handful of almonds in the morning helps me anyways. Good
luck. Hope this helps.
For 3 days I been eating a lot of almonds is this ok? Is it not save for the baby?
You need to be sure you are using the right Insulin Carb ratio for your doses before meals and that you have an accurate carb count. Calorieking.com is a good resource for carb listings in addition to what's on packages (and be sure to correctly measure servings). In order to gain weight you want to increase your protein and fats so that you can gain weight without increasing carbs.

I have recently been put on metformin for my A1c of 6.1 (down from 6.3). I am looking at eating vegan (with 2 eggs in the morning). Does anyone have any tips for me - or suggestions that can help me? Thanks!

Today his pre-lunch blood sugar was 43. He said he felt fine, but I gave him a snack of almonds, boiled eggs and tomatoes anyway. He had oatmeal, w/butter, cream for breakfast only a few hours earlier. BTW--very little activity this morning, just working the desk job.
Not sure what to do with this--trying to correct with diet but am at a loss. Most doctors only care if you have high blood sugar and think you should celebrate if it's low.
I have an extremely low blood count of red cells and was told it takes a long timefor it to replenish itself! What foods can I eat to help it along quicker?
So if you have an orange, then add some almonds to it, Never have a protein or carb by itself. With chicken, have a salad. The more you do this, your symptoms will go away. Stop thinking of being pre diabetic and think of health foods and balancing, and stay away of simple sugars, potatoes, honey or regular rice and pastas. Have whole grains or even pasta made from brown rice or beans. Beans is also a great protein.
let me know if you have any more questions.

To fight hunger, I eat natural , no salt Almonds and peanuts available at Costco and Walgreen.In my opinion that only low-carb (6, 12,12) will stablelize your blood glucose. You can buy this book or at least read the reviews of this book :Diabetes Solution by Dr. Beirstein by log in on Amazon.com. There has been many lives, many diabetic 2 lifes have been saved by reading this book, by this Dr methode. Sadly, in my opinion, there are many more incompetent diabetes Doctors.
t a constant stream of carb laden food like it is today. Processing grains into flour has only been around for about 8000 years; a blink of the eye on the evolutionary time line. Our bodies have not yet adapted to processing large quantities of breads, pasta and flour products.
You can do it, but it just takes a little effort. Initially I got into reading, and calculating the glycemic index of various foods. It was bewildering. Instead I just shun anything with high amounts of carbs.
That still doesn't tell us what you eat. Also, a low carb diet has not been shown to be a good long-term way to eat, but it can help in the short term if you're also doing resistance training.
