[QUOTE="searley, post: 2421713, member: 31377"] For me I found not all carbs are the same.. some work faster/slower etc so have slightly different effect on me. along with the fact that not all meals come with exact carb values So I used the carbs and Cals app to advise me roughly what’s in the plated food Along with food labels.. over the that 10 years I’ve got very good at looking at a plate of food and deciding how many grams of carbs are there and most of the time I’m right.. And I just learn over time what foods need treating slightly differently In the first 6 months i logged everything.. then found no one really cared so I stopped.. now I just keep computer records from the devices I use I’m not great at maths.. can get along.. but am good with numbers… more in the sense I remember numbers really well If you are different and struggle keeping track of numbers etc then the carbs and cals app might be worth a look But I often just ask Google ‘how many carbs in’ [/QUOTE]
