Hi Rockin,
I know what you mean aobut being "this side of hungry" when on the diabetic meal plan. I found it worked a lot better when I added more healthy fats (olives, olive oil, nuts in moderation, and avocado)....and also more lean protein.
Veggies are great, of course, but they don't seem to keep me feeling satisfied in the same way that the healthy fats and protein do.
Best of luck with it,
Jo
