She just gave me a few leaflets and showed me a healthy balanced diet. Well of course that was nothing new to me. Sticking to it when you are very hungry and have the signs of a hypo coming is the difficult bit! Any way I had no advice on carbs at all and don't know what 20 - 30g of carbs would be. At the moment I just yearn for carbs all the time so I wouldn't mind betting I exceed this all the time. Years ago I did the Atkins diet and lost considerable amounts of weight while feeling on top of the world and full of energy but so many people told me to stop as it was in their opinion an unhealthy way of eating. I have felt pretty lousy and tired for some time now and the weight has crept on again.What would constitute 30g of carbs. Is it literally a potato, pasta or bread etc weighing 30g? 30g doesn't sound all that much to me!</blockquote>
