[QUOTE="AgaRosa, post: 1162265, member: 297035"] Very wise - balanced and tailored approach is definitely best. And that's what my consultant has told me - muscles not fat. Shame she also said it's not necessary to do carb counting yet. But am seeing my GP on Thursday so will ask her if the diabetic nurse can give me some instructions. Have started writing all down now and carb counting the best I can, it seems I can manage 80g of carbs a day on two doses of basal (10 units total, 5 morning and 5 evening). BG is much better in the morning than afternoon though. I would not be able to last 4 hours after breakfast on small snacks - would have a hypo. In the afternoon, yes, that sort of a break with small snacks definitely possible. I have already changed my diet to what it had been 2 weeks ago thanks to you guys so things can only get better. THANK YOU! [emoji7] Sent from my SM-T710 using [URL=http://r.tapatalk.com/byo?rid=67]Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app[/URL] [/QUOTE]
