[QUOTE="Listlad, post: 2143489, member: 499223"] I decided to adjust my carb levels down gently and not cut them out altogether. One can still low carb on 100 to 130 grams a day and many of us do and this is because for some it is sufficient. If you are lucky then it might be sufficient for you. It seems to be sufficient for me as things stand. I don’t eat Yorkshire pud anymore but do have one roast potato, when we have a roast dinner, which is occasionally. I have the one roast potato piece and that’s it. I don’t spend the rest of the meal salivating over another while my family are chomping away on as many as they wish. It works for me and this is supported by my HbA1c results and the reversal of my diabetic symptoms. I eat a roast dinner on that footing about once a month. No more. I can control any urge to over indulge but appreciate that isn’t possible for some. If you then need to adjust your carb levels further downwards then so be it. Also by dropping down to 100 to 130 grams of carbs per day initially, it allows you to acclimatise, get your bearings and take stock, making it easier if you need to adjust down further if need be.
