[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 948862, member: 41816"] Hi, I am really impressed that you have managed for so long on so much carb. That isn't to say that your diet is high carb - it is probably lowish, compared to normal people, but I couldn't eat all that bread and pasta. You are probably at a decision point, and it is entirely up to you which way to jump. Clamp down on the carbs and stay low or no meds, or carry on eating as you are, and gradually increase the meds. Those Kirsty's meals look delicious, and (for preprepared somewhat processed foods) they look healthy, but 13% carb in a 400g meal is over 50 g carbs, at once. I have less than that all day. (sorry the 400g is a guess because I couldn't quickly find the nutritional listings, but that is the equivalent weight of a tin of tomatoes, so it is a nice round, meal sized amount) [/QUOTE]
