[QUOTE="Member496333, post: 1944066"] Oh god yes. Absolutely I used to count them! Experimented for about a year. It led me down a path of deprivation, depression and diabetes burnout. Only in exiling them completely with keto did I free myself from the shackles of weighing food and negotiating with a plate. Additionally it’s also worth noting that in excess, for some people, protein also contributes to their overall glucose load, particularly over the course of time. It’s been said by some that a high protein diet is a high glucose diet. The body has no mechanism by which it can store unused amino acids, so excess will be converted to glucose or excreted by the kidneys. It’s not just carbohydrate that we need to watch. It was this realisation that enabled me to eliminate dawn phenomenon and finally get off my last 500mg of Metformin :) [/QUOTE]
