[QUOTE="Neohdiver, post: 1265741, member: 258692"] For me, I counted both. I'm moving now to counting only carbs (since I've lost 74 lbs and have passed my target weight). I count calories for weight loss - and decided that as long as I had to watch every mouthful, I might as well lose the weight I'd intended to lose. But I got my diabetes under control exclusively by counting carbs. I eat no mre than 20 net carbs in a 2 hour period. I arrived at that number by testing my blood glucose at 1 hour, 2 hours, and 3 hours after eating anything new. If my blood glucose went above 7.8 (the top of normal blood glucose ranges), I either cut out that food or cut way back, if I was determined to continue eating it. [/QUOTE]
