It can be helpful for people who are struggling to control their diet and exercise in order to control their diabetes, to plan out their meals a week in advance so that there are no surprises, and there is no stress in deciding what to eat next, and wondering if it will be okay to eat or not. The following is a basic diabetic menu plan for a single day, and the rest of the week should be modeled approximately the same way.
