Hey gals, I knew this would be the place to get some great answers! Here is the short story: I need a good low-sugar recipe for DESSERT to be used on T-giving! I have tried diabetic recipies before and they tasted kind of rubbery.....I am hoping for something a bit better if any of you are in the know.....
Here is the long version: So my brother goes to the ER with horrible pain. They found gall stones. Hmm, that wasn't the cause of the pain based somehow on bloodwork, MRI, etc. So they looked deeper and found a pancreas infection. Apparently Pancreas infection could be set off by the gall stones, even if the gall stones are not flaring up.
Causes of gall stones are either 1. being a woman, or 2. being "overweight with little or no exercise" according to webMD. Yup--he is #2. Never worked out a day in his life, sleeps all day and watches TV all night and just lives to eat. He looks pregnant with his belly. Rather sad that it took this much to get him to realize after the whole family has ben on him about it for like 20 years. Anyway, parents now say they're coming to MY PLACE to T-giving (yes, he lives with them, so he comes too). Right now sounds like he is scared of all things sugar since sugar levels in his blood were crazy and could have been part of the flare up? So I am trying to accomodate.
Whew. That's the story!
Thanks for any help/resources/actual tried-and-true recipes...
