| I count carbs, but i dont "cap" my carbs and i am not overweight. if i play sport i take on more carbs and if i eat more then i take more insulin. I try to snack on things that dont effect my bg. I do tend to keep carb quantities at each meal similar, but thats due to lazyness of having to recalculate insulin quantity. Don't restrict carbs unless you are trying to loose weight, ie less carbs:less insulin. I think loosing weight is more than just "restricting" carbs though, there are lots of things that impact it eg fat/exercise/callories etc. Dieting minimum is 150g of carbs and a regular person has 300g of carbs, so im lead to believe. Good luck with the 'D'. |
