[QUOTE="Flossiealexis, post: 254710, member: 42345"] Hi I am low carbing and it is great I have struggled a while with my BG and yes sometimes it is hard to eat something on the go but generally it is good. I work and commute and so on so couldn't do Dr Bernstein as strictly as he advises but I just kind of adapt it for me. I think the theories are correct so maybe try reading his book it can be a bit tough going at times but none the less. Do I think that you could do the diet being vegan? um no probably not as like it has been mentioned before you need to replace the carbs with protein to make your body cope. In addition for me personally my mother and grandmother had breast cancer and so my sister and I have been advised not to touch Soya products by the hospital so would be cautious in replacing carbs with too much of this. I am pumping and have found this works for me but I also know a couple of people who instead of doing low carbs they do strict regular amounts of carbs at each meal in order to regulate their insulin in take and learn how their bodies cope. Sorry not sure that this any help I hope you find something that works, take care. [/QUOTE]
