[QUOTE="TriciaWs, post: 2434934, member: 475901"] I started on 100g a day, then down to 85g when my morning (fasting) BS wasn't dropping. Now I'm in remission I still aim to stay under 120g most days. I didn't count calories or worry too much about fats and protein apart from upping my fat intake a bit. I was diagnosed fairly quickly so got into remission faster than some people manage - there is evidence that the less damage you've done from more years with high blood sugar the easier it might be. In my case I was seeing normal range blood sugar most days apart from first thing within 3 weeks. I bought a meter and test strips, at first I tested before and after every meal, then one full routine a week plus testing before and after any added food/food combination I'd not tested before. A lot of the keto/low carb recipe sites use a lot of eggs but there are alternatives (eg vegan recipes or non-dairy) if you like baking. Just be careful as many vegan alternatives are higher carb [/QUOTE]
