[QUOTE="Kristin251, post: 1534511, member: 240838"] I couldn't control my bs or weight while eating carbs. I don't count calories but I have tracked them and meals are pretty much the same for me so I estimate about 1000 calories not including my evening cocktail. I prefer a few small fat rich meals and a few nut snacks rather than larger meals. This helps my bs too A typical day for me is 8 am -1/3 avocado bf either with a turkey meatball crumbled, pumpkin seeds sprinkled or some chopped celery pieces. Lunch is another 1/3 avacado with various proteins. I split lunch at noon and 3 Happy hour wine and an ounce of cheese ( 5pm) Dinner is the last of the avocado, some protein and salad greens. (6:30-7h I use mayo, olive oil on proteins and veggies but just a drizzle. Snacks are a few macadamia nuts / pecans/ roasted pumpkin seeds. Olives or raw vlc veg. I eat less than 20c per day and mostly in avocado and nuts. I am type one so it might be better for you to not eat as often as I do. I need an insulin dose every 2.5-3 hours so this works for me. If you do lc be aware protein can turn to bs via gluconeogenisis so some need to keep that moderate. Though my diet is low carb, moderate fat and moderate protein it's still an 80% fat diet. 15% protein and 5% carbs. This works great for my weight and bs. [/QUOTE]
