As well as the 1800 calories diet, my husband was given ‘an exchange’ diet.   This is where you have to weigh everything you eat, and then choose what food you are going to eat. 

There are a few free items such as salt substitute and pepper, but this diet drove me crazy.  It is hard enough trying to get my husband to walk, he has neuropathy of the feet, and then to tell him, that if he has regular salad dressing, he has to give up something else.

Moderation and small meals is the way too go.  His sugar readings are in the 75 - 120 readings, that his doctor requires.  That makes me happy.
