[QUOTE="Rick, post: 5293, member: 994"] Wait, wait, wait...this debate is entirely down to personal preference and experimentation. Yes, fine, what works for you is great but don't just blindly suggest that that is the miracle answer for everyone. 20-30 carbs a day, I mean, I couldn't even remotely exist on that amount and I have at least 100 carbs a meal no problem. My highest hba1c has been 6.1 over a four year period so it obviously works for me; and, I regularly eat chocolate bars to deal with hypos and my body fat is only 10%. Having said that I do alot of exercise and, therefore, I need the carbs quite badly. Yes, you need to test and re-test and work out what the best way of controlling your blood sugar is but don't have a go at people because they like a bit of chocolate. Get a food diary going and remember that your only diabetic; don't let it get you down, enjoy yourself. [/QUOTE]
