[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1539464, member: 355878"] If you go on having sugary treats then you will open up a whole raft of temptations. If you cut down the sweetness of everything you eat - even things using artificial sweeteners then the sugary 'treats' will become sickly as your taste buds regain their normal sensitivity. You seem to be able to cope with a fair amount of carbs per meal - but it will be a lot easier if you eat lower carb foods rather than including the usual suspects of potatoes and other high starch vegetables or bread and pastry. They are all low nutrient foods - but pack a huge amount of carbs into a small volume. Do check on the actual amount of carbs in what you are thinking of eating. Also be aware that in the US the fibre is counted in with the carbs, even though it is not going to impact your blood glucose. US sources will show some foods as high carb when they are not, just have good amounts of fibre included. [/QUOTE]
