My Husband is also Type 2.
Buy the chips in the big bag of individual little bags. Those are approx. a
carb choice each. Look in the store and buy things already in little bags
so you are not tempted to just keep eating. But make sure to check the
carbs for each bag.
Salad with a lowfat dressing. Just go easy on the dressing. normally 2
tablespoons. A baked chicken breast - no skin. And a small apple or small
banana makes a very nice lunch within the carb range.
Buy high fiber bread (there is one that is on all the grocery shelves that
is called High Fiber and costs the same as all the other ones) and make a
chicken sandwich. Go easy on the mayo adding mustard for extra moisture. A
little bag of chips and a small apple.
In the store you can buy already cut up veggies for a snack. My Husband
likes to dip them in mustard. Low carb and doesn't need refrigerated and
ready to go!
Get on the internet and check out the fast food menus. They list carbs,
etc. For a change you could do that. Just have in mind what you are going
to order when you go in and stick to it. Don't even look at the list of
choices!
Good luck!

Subject: [Healthy_Recipes_For_Diabetic_Friends] Lunch for truck drivers
Hello-
I drive a truck about 9-10 hours a day, and I am Type II diabetic.
Does anyone have ideas for something quick and easy to prepare, and
portable, i.e. lunchbox-type sandwiches, wraps, etc. that I can consume
while driving, or making a quick stop? Wheat-bread peanut butter and
sugar-free jelly sandwiches are getting old...
Thanks,
