[QUOTE="JJO, post: 1150672, member: 296277"] [USER=240838]@Kristin251[/USER] Thankyou. It's difficult because I actually don't know these things. Knowing what should be off menu, or at least heavily curtailed. Because I've been essentially carb free for 4 years, when my DN said I gotta eat some carbs every meal I've gone to town with that. Quite clearly too much! Your comments weren't abrupt. That's why I've written this message, to seek people opinions on what I should be paying attention to. Clearly when my DN said eat some carbs she probably meant healthier, lower GI than my Chinese and I guess I knew that when I was having it. My question I guess though, do people write down every detail of their dinner for example and log that somewhere? I'm a bit overwhelmed by what I should be logging. I mean in a weeks time will I care that I logged 6u of insulin into my BM machine but my BM still was 16.2 (actually rose to 18 two hours later but back down to 16 now). Do people prefer to focus on the 7 day average feature on their BM machine? I don't what to become obsessed and write everything down on paper (excel or app) if I don't *need* to...
