[QUOTE="HereWeAreAgain, post: 499703, member: 89992"] Hi and thanks for your replies about the carbs, as opposed to the sugar content in the shakes. He is still doing really well at it. His doc said to stop the Glic tabets if his bloods went too low. He was 3.8 a couple of nights ago, so has come off the 60mg per day he was taking. Bloods are still steady at 5 at breakfast, and before meals, and 7 or so after. When he comes off this, he wants to start a low carb diet. (It has helped with all the news coverage of the last week or so about carbs and sugar being the baddie, not the high fat we've been brought up to avoid!) Therefore, what level of carb intake per day would you suggest he start on? Is 100g carbs per day (IE 30g at breakfast and lunch, and 40g for dinner) too low to start with? Many thanks. You cannot believe how relieved I am that he is now taking this seriously again...:-) [/QUOTE]
