Much of the food I eat I prepare at home from fresh ingredients so it would entail weighing it out, knowing what carbohydrates/fibre it contains then doing a bit of mental arithmetic. Far too much unnecessary hassle, for me. On the occasion I'm buying packaged food I will sometimes look at the nutritional label on the back to see what the carbohydrate percentage is together with the fibre content. This is especially so if I am comparing products ( for example bread) so I can go for the one with lower carb and or higher fibre. I am fortunate my weight is very constant (70kg) and my last HbA1c was 6.4. I take metformin twice a day and have no particular desire to try and come off it by counting carbs as I have found a diet I am content with.</p></blockquote><p></p>
