Carb Counter Book? anyone suggest a good 1,its ok saying that for instance that ½ cup blackberries: 3.5 grams effective (net) carbohydrate, but is that good or bad, what is a healthy amount? or am I going about this the wrong way? An Idiots guide to Carbohydrates would be good if there is one, but any that you could recommend. Also took cartys advise and made a huge saving on the strips and lancits an ebay, thanks for that.

I would suggest for home use the Calorie Carb and Fat Bible 2010. My own favourite.

A pocket version of either, Little Gem Carb Counter or the Calorie one which also has carbs listed.

Both are available at most good high street Newsagents or online.

Do not look at nett carbs, it is the TOTAL carbs you need to check. Have a read of the Basic Advice for Newly Diagnosed Diabetic's which Sue and I post around here. It's in Greetings and Introductions at the top part of the list.
