White bread

It's my nemesis. We only have it when the kids get to choose (very occasionally), but I end up eating it. It makes me feel awful (very sleepy) for a few hours, and sending my blood sugar sky high (regardless of how much insulin I take).

Anyone else experience similar?

No - but only because I don't let myself have bread any more 😭😭😭😭😭

God, I'd do awful things to awful people for a piping hot fresh French baguette smothered in butter...!

I've swapped to liv life low carb bread - an absolute godsend. Don't miss the other stuff at all!

Thanks! I'm currently eating dr karg crisp breads but it's nowhere near the same!

Yep, white bread, anything with white flour in. Always sends it sky high!
It's my nemesis too

I mainly eat Burgen bread, but I don't get too much of a spike if I eat Warburton's Danish white.

White and brown bread medium sized is approx 15g carbs. The seeded bread is better as it’s lower GI meaning that you won’t spike as high after eating it as the body breaks it down more slowly

I have a small wholemeal roll, only very rarely have white bread
