One Last Question for GMONEY :) Regarding Food

Ok, I have a question. When it comes to food, im a very picky eater, and diabeties hasnt helped, lol.

So here is my question, if i dont have the time to Make Eggs, or make something full of protein or somethin, could i have a protein bar? with like 30 g's of protein for example?

Im asking because on a few protein shakes and stuff, on the diabetic guide, it didnt count as a protein, a strach, or anything, it counted as a Sugar, and as a Milk

So could i eat a protein bar in replace or somethign that i would usually eat if im in a hurry

When we discussed this with our nutritionist we were told to try to find one that we enjoy and not to worry about whether it is protein or starch.  These protein bars are supposed to a balance meal in a bar.  The ones made for diabetics are designed to help keep blood sugars level. We have found the Zone bars, and the bars that are low carbs (they say to count as a lower carb. than on the label.) Have worked better for keeping our daughters blood sugars in line.  

If you cannot find one that you feel is good for you, call your nutritionist and ask him/her for some suggestions.  

I hope this is  not your last question and that you will visit this forum again.
Have a good holiday
