No diet, but I try to stay under 1500 calories a day. Some days I'm under, some over...but that's my goal. I eat whatever carbs are reasonable...some healthy and some not. But, I always follow carbs with insulin...no exceptions.

Yesterday I had a "high carb" lunch...but it was lima beans, baked beans and two bites of cantalope!...(veg plate at diner)...so, the fiber is important to me as well.

I try to eat at least 15-30 g of carbs at a meal...but rarely go over 60-75. I do drink milk...so that's included in the carbs.
