[QUOTE="BarbaraG, post: 1299601, member: 47277"] Carb tolerance is individual. Eat to your meter to discover the level which helps you control your BG. If you eat under about 50g per day, you will probably be in ketosis, which has certain advantages. The appetite suppression means you naturally want to eat less, which tends to mean weight loss. That means reduced insulin resistance, and in turn better BGs. I stopped eating grains, potatoes and other starchy vegetables and sugar. With a little bit of determination and all the information available online, it's not that hard to do. And it means my carbs are between 20-30g, without needing to count them. [/QUOTE]
