A good start, but don't forget that carbs aren't the only thing that the body will use to create.
Although your body cannot
convert fats directly into muscle-ready glycogen, through a series of metabolic processes that result from conditions of depleted carbohydrates, it is possible for stored fats to be broken down into glucose, which can then be converted into glycogen.
Also the liver has the ability to convert the amino acids that are found in protein into sugar. This process is called gluconeogenesis.
My personal experience has been that after several years of low carb (40gms a day so no bread/pasta/rice/potato) and well controlled BG, my BG started to go all over the place. The thing that has helped me more recently is very low calorie dieting, I just eat vegetables, the ones that grow above ground having less carbs.
Might not be everyone but works fine for me, but only for 8 weeks at a time. I'm going to try going for 12 weeks but the impetus falls off when I experience the dreaded dieting plateau where no weight loss occurs, something I'm also trying to achieve as well as level BG.
