marchcruz Posted September 5, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 5, 2023 We leave in a month for our second MSC cruise. This time, we are going to Northern Europe. Last year I was footloose and fancy free in the Mediterranean on Splendida but this year… I have diabetes 🥺. I’m not on insulin and really have to be careful with what I’m eating. Pasta and potatoes are a no-go. I’m wondering if any of you have substituted things on the menu for dietary reasons? I hate eating in buffets so please don’t suggest that as my alternative. 🙂 Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisingFox27 Posted September 5, 2023 #2 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Have you completed the medical/dietary requirements form? That would probably aid you and I'd also speak to the Maitre D once your onboard and assigned your restaurant. I'm sure I've swapped items from meals but only occasionally. You can certainly order extra vegetables as a side dish with each meal, if you want to supplement them for potatoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marchcruz Posted September 5, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Yes. I filled that out a few months ago. I’m really just trying to figure out how I’m going to maintain my blood sugar and still enjoy traveling. I’m a planner, so these are the things I think about! 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tierun Posted September 5, 2023 #4 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Go with salads and grilled proteins. The seafood is a great choice. There is also a sugar free dessert available each night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
