[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 2048685, member: 94045"] I really do not believe there is an answer to your question. Only personal experience can answer it. Finding the correct amount of carbs for yourself is trial and error, and using your meter to tell you by testing before and after meals. If a meal sends you up more than 2mmol/l (and preferably a lot less - the flatter the better) then there are too many carbs in that meal for your body to cope with. It also depends when the carbs are eaten. For most of us, breakfast is not a good time for carbs. I have none at all, a few more at lunch, and the rest at dinner. That is how my body works. It may not be the same for you. It is all trial and error, and testing. [/QUOTE]
