[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 697228, member: 41816"] Hi, I would agree with [USER=74042]@ElyDave[/USER] that your carbs may still be too high. (I can't comment about the exercise -that's definitely not my area!) Low carbing isn't really about dropping carbs to a certain level. It is more about dropping them to the optimum level that works for YOUR body. Way back in the day, when Atkins brought out his LC diet, he got tremendous flak for telling people to reduce to 15-20 g carbs. What they all seemed to forget was that he said 'do 20g carbs for 2 weeks, then gradually increase your carbs til you reach your personal level where you can eat as many carbs as possible, and still lose weight'. When you hit target weight, you then add more carbs till you know your maintenance carb limit. Working out your bs/a1c tolerance works on exactly the same principle. Cut carbs drastically. Wait til you stabilise. Add them back in slowly until you start getting readings you don't like. Drop back down to the max you can eat with good readings. For me, your intake of 140g, would be FAR too much. I would gain weight fast on that. I have to stay under 80g to get an a1c of 6.5% And if I want lower, then I need to stay under 50g carbs. Hopefully, you won't have to cut down so much, but I have to say, I'm eating better, enjoying my food more, and feeling so much better than I ever did when I wasted empty cals on carbs. [/QUOTE]
