Do watch out for any root veggies, soft sweet fruits, all grain products, milk products, and a few other things that will cause problems.
If you have sufficient natural saturated fats in your food plan you won't be hungry. And they slow the digestion and absorbtion of the carbs you eat as well.
The food gurus who say to all of us to eat a low fat diet with very few if any natural saturated fats really are missing the boat. For the 50+ years we have been avoiding the whole milk, cream, butter and better steaks, the incidence of heart disease has not diminished at all. So eat to please your palate and glucose levels.Health Question & Answer

You should stay completely away from ALL grains and foods that contain grain. You should be getting your calories from fat and not carbs anyway. Concentrate on high density carbs, good fats and oils, and complete proteins. The insulin resistance may be due to the way your body is utilizing the insulin and glucagon in your body. Leptin is an enzyme that is produced in adipose tissue in response to calories ingested. If your primary source of calories is from fruits and vegetables, your body will not utilize your insulin and glucagon well.
