A couple of weeks ago my doctor said I have diabetes, and has me on a no carb diet. He is hoping that with the diet I wont need medicine. I am trying so hard to do this. I am doing really good, and never reach the aloted 60g of carbs I can have. But it was so hard not to have a piece of my daughters birthday cake, or one of the 4 doz cupcakes I baked, I love the cake part..... I want to make pumpkin cake, bread and cookie, from the club page, but I can't eat any of it.
I love baking, and decorating, and really want to learn more. This is so hard, because I want to lick the spoon when I am done mixing my batter..... I hate to think about never being able to eat a piece of cake again.
I am sure there are things I can do for treats for myself, but the no carb thing is hard when most cake is made with flour and sugar. Is there a subsitute for flour?? I know splenda is used for baking and there are other things to use. I would never do it for other peoples cake I make, just something for me..... And a few of the poeple in my family who also need to watch their health.
If you guys have any suggestions or recipes that you have tried and are not to bad, please pass them on.... I know others have issues they deal with, and they have inspired me when I have read about them, so I know you guys will help me.
Thanks
Wants a piece of cake!!!!!

Thanks you guys for everything. So far the doctor has told me to stay away from Carbs. I find things have allot of carbs that you would think I could eat. He only instructed me on carbs. 60 a day. So right now I have only ate meats, and veggie, hardly any fruit because that is full of carbs, eggs, cheese and so much lettuce, I feel like a rabbit. I go back tomorrow to the doctor so I hope to find out some more. I know this is hard, and I am doing it, I hope, but I am so hungry all the time, I can't figure out what to eat. I am going to pull out my bike this week. The weather is getting nicer and I think that will be something nice to start doing. By the late afternoon, I am just tired and when I get home I really don't want to do anything.... I hope tomorrow I can get some more answers about my conditions and maybe a little more help with my diet, because I am not sure how much longer I can go with out some of things I want. This weekend was my nieces birthday party and the cake looked so good, I wanted it so bad, but didn't do it!!!!!!!!
