[QUOTE="Kristin251, post: 1470410, member: 240838"] Anything over 20 carbs per DAY and I gain. I've been eating like this far before diabetes DX. I love above ground veggies so no problem just getting my carbs from them. I don't do high fat per se though it is 80% of my diet but the majority is in an avocado a day, a few ( about an ounce) nuts or pumpkin seeds spread throughout the day, a drizzle of olive oil on salads and mayo. I have to watch portions as well. Dinner is the only real meal I eat and it's small. I prefer snack size meals and a bit more often. I also gain on all grains and starches, all dairy and too many nuts. 1/3 large avocado with each meal keeps my bs low and slow and is very satisfying with its healthy fat and fiber and it keeps my energy very smooth all day. My hubby can work in the garden for a day and drop #5 and I can run around for an hour a day and not drop an ounce haha. My weight is definitely dictated by my diet. [/QUOTE]
