Right folks, here we go.
I'm going to start a new thread. Project: Nutrient Quest
I will put the information chart on the first post to remind you all of what information is needed.
Please be as accurate as you can. I realise some of you will vary in your carb intakes, mine veers between 35-80g for instance and you may post more than one day if you wish in different categories.
When we have the first four individuals "days" we will move on to the next four.
Those members who eat a liberal or even high carb diet will also be asked to submit their daily rations for analysis, so keep a look out.
See you all on the new thread.
cheerio,
Katharine.

I just miss out on the under 20g carbs! Calculated I have had 24g today. Will post when requested 
katie.

That's okay Kate. We can hang on and if no one posts we know that it's not that usual to go below 20g.
I suppose fergus is out catching salmon or shooting reindeer or something and that's why he hasn't posted?

Aren't reindeer off-season just now? Santa would be most upset if Fergus shot Rudolph! :lol: :lol:
Scottishkate,
I've opened up the menus for the 20-50g crew. If you go to the Project: Nutrient Quest (are you getting enough) thread we are ready for your menu.
Sue, fergus is so carnivorous I don't think anything would stop him! Especially after his three glasses of wine.

Snap! Except I ate Healthy brown toast and often Healthy muesli. Neither of which were. Especially not that orange juice.
I must admit to drinking Tropicana but only about 50ml in the morning to wash down rather large Flaxseed capsules.

If you use insulin, you have much more freedom than those of us who use orals or diet only.
However, I am convinced ( on the example of my T1 husband) that using a lot of insuin to knock the bgs down leads to problems. I think Bernstei's doctrine of small numbers is the safest way.
I wish I'd known about it many years ago, when T1 was in the early stages and without the multiple complications he has now. It can get very frustrating being married to complications. I'm not so much a wife as a "minder".
I suppose it's in the marriage vows though :?
