[QUOTE="Tophat1900, post: 2286355, member: 362123"] My carb total for per day is around 20g... counting carbs in nuts, yoghurt and some brocolli. My insulin production is quite poor and the last time I spoke to a dietitian (I didn't ask to) she told me to eat bread and sweet potatoes and that I don't need fast acting insulin and to stop using it. It was basically a recipe for DKA.... I could not believe the garbage I was hearing and of course I Ignored everything she said and left feeling quite irritated at the advice I was given (even though I didn't ask for it). I stated I was very much insulin deficient on a number of occasions. The horror stories about dietitians and DN's just seem to keep piling up on here. [/QUOTE]
