No, they're not. A baked potato is 111 on the glycemic index (pure glucose is 100) and it's a simple carb.

Better carbs are complex carbs like green vegetables, fruits and legumes.



I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking from a diabetic perspective. I missed that part of the thread.

Toppingfrmbottom: have to retract giving you recipes, mine aren't diabetic-tested.

what about sweet potato's or yams? my dad keeps saying those are just fine for you, but hes already admited he knows nothing about glycemic index or any of that.


A sweet potato is 70 and a Yam is 54. They are much better choices than white potatoes.

like for instance hamburger helper, it calls for milk, which is 13 grams of sugar or something and 13 carbs, but the box itself says 26 carbs and 6 grams of sugar, and that's for 1 cup of hamburger helper.


So if you do add the milk and the hh, carb info's then you've had 39 carbs and 19 grams of sugar.


And then she's made a carrot cake, and 1 slice has 35 carbs and 18 grams of sugar, but wait that's not all she's added pudding and icing. and in that pudding 1/4 of a cup is 20 grams of sugar and 24 carbs, and the icing is 2 tbsp 20 grams of sugar and 23 carbs, but she didn't just use 2 tbs she used like a whole cup and a half.


My dad keeps saying I can have the cake just have a tiny, tiny sliver, take one slice and then cut it in half an the cake would be ok to eat.


but I'm not eating the cake, I am very suspicious of the theory that if you take one slice and cut it in half that it'd be ok / acceptible/ anything a diabetic should eat. Plus cake is a huge gut bomb any way, diabetic or not, it's not something that fat inactive people* my mom nor I* should eat.


Let's put it this way...will your BODY know about those carbs you don't count? Oh yeah, you BETCHA...so you'd better keep track of them.
This is why so many people fail, and then say it didn't work.

Focus your carb intake on LEAF vegetables (not the "fruit" of the vegetable, as in beans, peas, corn bacause that's where many plants store carbs!). Grean leaf vegetables are packed with vitamins and fiber.
If you must have fruit, go with strawberries or blackberries. Strawberries especially are mostly water and fiber, and very low in carbs...cup of juicy strawberries, a couple packets of splenda, and thick cream poured over the top...mmmm.

Not just the calories count. The fruits with high sugar content are examples of high glycemic foods, ones that deliver the carbohydrates to your blood rapidly and cause insulin spikes. A plain English version with a few common problem foods pointed out: http://news.yahoo.com/high-glycemic-foods-tied-diabetes-risk-173213639.html
Googling: 'High Glycemic Foods' gets a lot more detail.

Studying new subjects is challenging. Usually you get bored or sleepy soon after passing by a word or concept you don't understand. Suddenly it's turning into a foreign language. A smart phone, laptop or pad and online dictionary or google/wikipedia usually gives the needed familiarity with a word or concept so you gain the new knowledge rather than are lost as the material based on that just keeps coming. If the class is small, stop the instructor and ask for more on the word or concept. If you aren't getting it, most likely others aren't either. Or see the instructor out of class with your notes of words you need more work with. You aren't in the class to make the instructor happy. They are there to get you familiar with ideas and concepts that are needed for your health and life span.

But it's still not something I should, or would want to with out a choice eat regularly or at all.

It just takes time.
You're not going to understand everything immediately. You need to let stuff sink in.
