This book is a great resource for anyone who faces the challenges of managing type 2 diabetes – the major one being what to eat! Not only does it help a person decide what and how much to eat, the book also provides tasty recipes (I loved the Cranberry Pear Salad recipe and the Bruschetta Baked Potatoes) and tips on how to eat out without losing ground. The authors give practical advice on how to accomplish lifestyle goals including nutrition and exercise (I personally find it very helpful to use a pedometer to measure steps). Also included is a wealth of information about how to manage diabetes and demystify the myths about “diets” and diabetes. I give this book a big thumbs up!

This is a great “how to” book with practical advice on diabetes meal planning. The information is shared in an upbeat and positive way. Answers to common questions about what to eat when you have diabetes are shared throughout the book. The tips and recipes are especially helpful to teach healthy eating skills. I particularly like the Swift, Simple Tips which provide time saving, easier meal preparation suggestions.

If eating healthy seems challenging and complicated this book will ease your mind and help you improve your diabetes control.

The best part about this book is the menus and recipes found in every chapter. There are even examples of how to make recipes healthier, how to read food labels in three easy steps, why keeping track of carbohydrate is important, and much, much more!

The title of this book says it all. If you have diabetes and have questions about what you should eat, this book will help you get started one step at a time. The information in the book is well formatted and very easy to read and understand. It is obvious that these two registered dietitians have lots of experience providing practical advice to people with diabetes.
If you are confused about carbohydrates, portion sizes, modifying your favorite recipes, reading labels, or what to eat, when eating out, this book explains it all in simple terms. This book is a confidence builder. Great book for yourself, or someone you know who has diabetes and is not sure what to eat.
