I was so happy when I saw this thread. I am on the Allure in October and am Type 2. Food really gets the best of me and I admit it. I get so confused on the carbs. I know I can't have potatoes, rice or white bread. I was on a cruise this past November on another cruise line and when I made my reservation I noted that I was diabetic. I was told to talk with the maîtres'd and I did. But when I went to the DR, I had to tell the server. She then went and talked with the chef and he had no clue. After about 45 minutes I got dinner. This happened twice. After that I went to the buffet for everything. The selections were considerably greater and I was able to pick what I knew I could eat. I ate all of my meals at the buffet from there on. I haven't told RCCL yet about my situation, and I wonder if it will be handled any better than my last cruise. I'm not on insulin but do have to take two different meds daily. If you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them.
