There are a few things I have learned that help me when I'm hungry or need a sweet:
Meat, Cheese, and Eggs
These three foods are considered FREE FOODS because they are basically protein. If your hungry, but your blood sugar is high; go cook a fat cheeseburger (80% lean) or fry some ham or bacon. Eat it without the bun or bread. Use condiments such as ketchup, mayo, mustard for dressings. Don't use Red Vinegarette, or sweet onion teriyaki sauce as it has more sugar (carbs).
Eggs are great as scrambled, fried, omlets!...ummm!
They recommend to not eat more than 3 - 5 eggs a week. I think it was because they are high in cholesterol, but don't quote me on that!
Cheese is awesome with almost anything. I love to eat some mozarella cheese sticks, carrots and broccoli with Ranch sauce to dip it in!
Beef Jerkey on the road is a great snack. Only 3 carbs for the biggest one! Notice that the HONEY one, or Teriyaki may have more carbs than the Original one!
For every 1/2 cup of Raw Vegetables it is 1 carb or 15grams. That's actually alot of veggies for dipping in Ranch Sauce.
Coleslaw - All veggies, and mayonaise. There is no carbs in this!
Canned Vienna Sausages! - Great for the road if you get the ones with a pop-top lid!
TIP:
Milk is Milk when it comes to the carb count factor! 1% milk has almost the same amount of carbs as Whole Milk does, so if you want Whole Milk.. get it!
