"Is there an alternative to carb-heavy hospital food?"

I was admitted to SAL for surgery - lipomodelling following reconstruction after breast cancer. As it was only planned for day surgery I knew I wouldn't be eating much but in preparation took some cheese/nuts as I follow a keto/low carb way of eating.

Unfortunately I ended up staying on the ward until late that evening and overnight on Branston - no issue with that as a minor complication occurred.

The part I find most frustrating is the complete inability to provide food that is not carb heavy - the hospital menu is proof of this. I was offered toast/sandwich or yoghurt on SAL neither of which I eat but felt that toast was the only option. Again the next morning toast and cereal are the only available option for breakfast.

I'm not sure if you provide a different menu for diabetics but there is overwhelming evidence that a low(er) carb lifestyle is one of the best ways to control blood sugars and ultimately the potential for remission of type 2 diabetes. 

I'm am not a diabetic but on asking if there were alternatives I was not offered anything else. I appreciate individual needs cannot always be met but would be very interested to know if there are plans to address these issues.
