[QUOTE="Ann19, post: 320269, member: 34881"] You don't have to eat lots of carbs for energy, if you read around the forum you can see lots of us don't eat massive amounts. Our bodies use the fat we have stored and the fat in our food for energy. The amount of carbs that you eat is entirely up to you, but if you eat more carbs , then the medication that you take may also increase. The way you control your diabetes is YOUR decision, there isn't a right or wrong way IMO, it has to be what works for you. There are people on the board that eat more carbs, Sid Bonkers for example, he controls his diabetes with portion control and low GI where possible. I doubt that I could control my portions very well, hubby is always saying that I give him too much! It sounds as though your GP is one of the more knowledgeable on diabetes. Ann [/QUOTE]
