Your meal plan tells you when to eat meals and snacks, how much to eat, and what kind of food to eat. You don t have to give up all the foods you like, but you do need to follow some guidelines. EAT FOODS RICH IN FIBER Fiber is a carbohydrate that breaks down slowly and is healthy for your heart. A healthy diet should include fiber-rich foods such as: > > Whole grain-breads and cereals > > Bulgur wheat > > Brown rice > > Whole-wheat pasta > > Fruits and vegetables > > Dry or canned beans and peas CHOOSE HEALTHY PROTEIN FOODS > > Fish > > Plant proteins, such as dry or canned beans and peas, nuts, and soy products like tofu and soy milk > > Lean meat > > Low-fat milk, cheese, and yogurt See HEALTY MEALS FOR DIABETES on page 2 Inside 3 Type 2 Diabetes from Head to Toe 5 6 Know the Basics about Your Medicines 7 My Medicines Omelet with Cheddar and Low-fat Ham
2 smart choices Healthy Meals Continued from page 1 LIMIT UNHEALTHY FATS AND SUGARS Saturated and trans fats are unhealthy for your heart because they raise LDL cholesterol the bad type of cholesterol.

Your doctor will tell you how much of each type of food you should eat. > > Use measuring cups, measuring spoons, and a food scale to measure serving sizes. > > Learn what a correct serving size looks like on your plate. This will help when you are away from home and can t measure servings. > > Eat only the number of servings given on your meal plan for each food. WHEN TO EAT Your meal plan will likely include breakfast, lunch, dinner, and some snacks. > > Try to eat your meals and snacks at about the same time each day. > > Eat all your meals and snacks skipping a meal or snack can make your blood sugar drop too low. It can also cause you to eat too much at the next meal or snack, and your blood sugar could get too high. Reference: Krames on Demand.
