[QUOTE="DavidGrahamJones, post: 1265934, member: 245335"] It's already been said but just think of it this way. Carbs make your BG go up (without more and more medication) so best to keep to a minimum and that number will depend on you and the way your body works. Calories, or at least an excess of calories will increase your weight so in theory less calories than you need will help you lose weight. Personally, I watch both. Taking carbs out of the equation (bare in mind that's recommended to be 1/3 of calories by NHS/NICE) answers both carbs and calories. If you replace those calories with HF then you'll need to watch how much fat. [/QUOTE]
