Lately, I've been self-experimenting. I have my next clinic appointment in April, so I've been going as low as possible, just to see how the numbers turn out.At the moment, it's 0 carbs at breakfast, 0 carbs at lunch and 10-20 for dinner!It's been a revelation because the food is great, and I've never felt less hungry between meals. Sugars are anchored in the 4's and life is good.It probably sounds cranky, I know, but right now I'm strugling to see the point of carbs!However, I've just figured out how to make a really low carbohydrate bread - 20g of carbs in an entire loaf! So they may be creeping back in, albeit in quite a small way.I think Bernstein advocates 30g carbs per day, but it sounds a bit too restrictive to my mind, specifying precisely how many grams of carbohydrate one can eat every day. I prefer my meals to be more focused on delicious food than mathematics!All the best,fergusc</blockquote>
