My dad just found out that he has diabetes on Monday. His birthday is in 2 weeks and he's still coping with the fact that he can't eat all of the delicious things around him. Do you know any restaurants in the Towson/Bmore area that are good for diabetics? That will probably have sugar-free cake for dessert? Thanks for your help!Good restaurant in Towson/Baltimore area to bring diabetic father for his birthday?
It's very early in learning how to treat himself .I do hope he is working with an endocrinologist, dietitian and diabetes educator.
dad can eat most all of what he likes.You didn't mention if he has type 1 or 2 but I'll guess type 2.
He should be counting carbohydrates.
A great steak dinner with creamed spinach and a medium baked potato sounds good to me.
Forget the sugar free cake. As we know, sugar is not the problem in diabetes. It is the carbs.
He can easily have a piece of regular cake-not a huge piece like most restaurants serve since he is so new at this.
Have dinner at a decent time and take a walk after dinner.
Please have a great time and do not play the food police.Dad is an adult.
Start to learn to count carbs with him.
Happy Birthday .
