I’m guessing they are all low fat too as is mainstream advice. In which case it’s far more likely to simply be not enough food if they are really small and lacking in healthy natural fats. [USER=558661]@Dave with T2[/USER]  Some of us eat as few as 5-10% of our calories from carbs and as low as 20g a day. Others eat more, up to the 135g advice. It all depends what level achieves the blood glucose results we need rather than weight.  Essentially we don’t typically restrict calories overall or in most cases even count them. We just eat unmessed with proteins and unprocessed fats (not vegetable and seed oils) until we’re full and have enough energy for our lifestyles. We adjust these for weight maintenance and even gains leaving carbs alone</blockquote>
