Hello,
So I am newly diagnosed ( last month) & I know everybody is different but how many grams of carbs do you have a day?
When I was first diagnosed early May I was told to take 4 units of fast acting every time I ate now I’ve been told to do the 1 unit per 10grams Of carbs & it’s making me feel really over whelmed to eat anything with a lot of carbs in I’m only small 7 stone 10 and I’m normally a grazer don’t eat big meals but even snacking on fruit now is obviously carb counting for a treat we were having a Nando’s and a wrap & chips were 10units & I think because I was used to only 4 Units it really made me not want to have it all.
Id just like to know how every body else deals with it I do eat healthy a lot but love the bad foods Every now & again too. Thankyou
