[QUOTE="andromache, post: 2425382, member: 495186"] Eating too little is a bad habit to get into. People who are naturally lean tend to struggle to keep weight on without enough whole food carbs to trigger a big enough insulin response to make things stick, by which I mean be laid down as much-needed fat stores rather than all burned off as energy. It is possible to be too frightened of carbs, and with an HbA1c like hers, on the face of it, she shouldn't be. These things are always a balancing act. I hope that she feels better and stronger very soon. [/QUOTE]
