Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
My big concern was glucose/a1c and I'd cut back on potatoes, pasta, etc. in favor of bulghur, couscous and other grains. I cut back on sugar and I'm also eating more fish and less of the other meats. The changes have been pretty painless.
You didn't post your A1c. Was it down too? In my experience, and as a diabetic I've done a ton of testing and experimenting, replacing one grain or starch with another doesn't effect my A1c significantly. I don't know whether couscous is healthier than spaghetti or not, but I doubt it will change your blood sugar levels very much. But then again, if your levels are already acceptable, there's no need to change. If my body could tolerate pasta, I'd be all over that stuff. Yum!
