[QUOTE="joules, post: 1052152, member: 153414"] Regarding being hungry, I have found that within a month of quitting wheat; that my stomach has got smaller with less space for over eating. I actually now get an alert to stop, which is great! After a great deal of research, it seems that diabetes is linked to celiac disease, so wheat should be dropped! - that however will be for another discussion am sure. All this protein talk is confusing... I personally only eat fish + chicken, rarely red meats. The salad and meat thing is NOT 0 carbs as suggested by nutricianalists at the hospital appointments, nor something from a previous meal as they suggest. All i know is that I need 4-10u novorapid (depending on the time of day), despite a packet suggesting it's 3 - 5carbs. It's all very misleading and I do get that it all varies on the body type. Packets should not mislead like that and something [I]should[/I] be done! Can someone perhaps suggest a mobile calculator app for protein that includes + body type to work out carb content in everything? Perhaps a learning app? - that'd be great, right?! [/QUOTE]
