| Just wondering about how many carbs you are comfortable with per day. I've been concerned my carb count is too low - unhealthy. I eat probably between 50 (usual) and 75 of very healthy carbs a day. Occasionally below 50, almost never above 75. Get a bit tired during the day (but not when I leave each night for my 2 plus miles hike after dinner!) And one other comment - I've got diabetes on both sides of my family. Everyone got it later in life. My grandmother always ate pretty healthy from what I remember - she lived with Type 2 diabetes until 90 - and that was back in the 70s. My dad doesn't eat healthy, takes medications, is 85 but the disease has taken a real tough toll on him. I think many of the forum members are on the right track and can, at least, be hopeful. I am. (And Ronin - I just ordered the BioSAFE a1c test kit - Thanks) |
