The answer is, I don't, unfortunately and my blood sugar isn't as much under control and I would like it to be. :( The next question is usually – “So, how do you keep away, considering your affinity to food”, or something on the same lines.

However, those weren't the tiffins you're referring to. Those are the tiffin delivery systems that are in place in Mumbai and yes, the logistics are daunting. I have been diabetic for the last two years or so. Anything with a high sugar (direct [like sugar or indirect [like potatoes/bread]) is forbidden. As you can guess, that just about includes everything except things like cucumber. Also, since diabetic heart attacks are silent, high calories/cholestrol foods are out too. Add to that the circulation problems that plague the diabetic and the fact that smoking causes a hardening of the arteries - smoking is out too. No, please don't ask me the next logical question. :) Sid Hello Toni: The lunches I am referring to were in tiffin boxes, encased in a hot case of sorts, so they remain warm.

Do wish Vinny a happy Mother's Day from me, please. We had ours ages ago! Were your lunches in Tiffin boxes? I've heard stories about them being delivered to offices - the logistics were frightening! How long have you known that you are diabetic and what restrictions to your diet does that impose? What a lovely post! Do wish Vinny a happy Mother’s Day from me, please. We had ours ages ago!

How long have you known that you are diabetic and what restrictions to your diet does that impose?
