[QUOTE="Kristin251, post: 1048472, member: 240838"] I can't eat that much protein (61 grams) in a day let alone one meal. Excess protein can be a big player. Protein is certainly not a 'free' food. The name of the game is low carb, high fat, not high protein. After a certain amount of protein you may have to split your meal insulin. As I said protein will raise me just as much as carbs. We only need a certain amount for maintenance and repair and any excess will convert to BS. In fact 58%. Hence the reasoning behind blousing for 50%. Bloodsugar 101 has a good calculator for your macros. [URL]http://www.phlaunt.com/diabetes/DietMakeupCalc.php[/URL] [/QUOTE]
