If this is the only reason why you're low carbing, you should (gradually) find out the MOST carbs you can have WITHOUT a problem-sized insulin spike. That's going to be a magic number that's different for everyone but once you find it, it will make it a lot easier for you to find foods to eat. Eventually you'll learn which foods have sufficient proteins, fats, and fibers to slow down the digestion of the carbs you eat, which reduces the insulin problems diabetics have. Find a balance that works for you, don't try to be extreme if it isn't called for. If you have an Atkins book, read the seconds on ongoing weight loss, maintenance, and the CCLL and CCLM numbers. -- "[xxx] has very definite opinions, and does not suffer fools lightly.

Wellness 101 Hi, my name is Willie Faison and I'm sending this to you because I care about whats happening to us and our families. I'm doing this to inform you and to help you if you're looking for help in weight-loss or well-being. As Americans we enjoy one of the most luxurious lifestyles on earth and it's killing us. Why, because our food is plentiful, our work is automated and our leisure is effortless. This lifestyle has caused many Americans to become overweight. We're fat not only because we eat a lot, but also we eat the wrong things. Adult women are now eating 335 more calories per day then they did in 1971. And adult men have increased their daily intake by 168 calories. We each ate 1,775 pounds of food in 2000, up from 1,497 pounds in 1990. In America we've increased our intake of carbohydrates. Sugars and starches have become the staples of the American diet. The food pyramid guidelines told Americans to avoid fat and eat grains, but the grains we are eating are flour-based items such as; pasta tortillas and hamburger buns, which have little or no nutritional value at all. As a result we're loaded up on pasta and bread, causing the low fat message to backfire. Currently we're eating more vegetables as we follow the USDA's food guide pyramid issued in 1992 but there are serious flaws in it because some vegetables listed like iceberg lettuce could have been substituted for healthier choices with much higher nutritional values like romaine, spinach. You should be aware that high-fat-carbohydrate meals raise your cholesterol levels and send your blood sugar soaring! Which puts you at greater risk for diabetes and cardiovascular disease. To make matters worse nutritionists are explaining the dangers of inflammation of the blood vessels, which cause soft tissue damage to your joints! Our body mass index (BMI) is a measurement of body weight relative to height. A person with a BMI OF 30 or more is considered obese - and at a higher risk of disease, such as diabetes, stroke, osteoarthritis, heart disease and other forms of serious cancer. Obesity-related diseases cost the United States more than 100 billion dollars annually. In 2005, being overweight is predicted to surpass smoking as the leading cause of preventable death in the country.

That would be much more sensible, but if so, the OP needs to be more clear, esp on this forum where a "carb" is a gram of carbohydrate. Of such misunderstandings are major problems born. |

Unless the "prescription" was for 5 carb exchanges, which would be 75 grams of carb. Either way, there's no way to know if it's too low or too high cause diabetes is not a one-size-fits-all type of deal; you have to test your bg to know if you're overeating carbs or if you can tolerate a bit more. If the OP's "struggles" with low-carb have to do with cheating, I'd suggest doing a week or two of induction to break the overall carb addiction. Then add carbs back in gradually, mostly from non-starchy veggies and low-sugar fruits, until you find the ideal carb level. Weight loss in only one variable; diabetics must eat low enough carb to manage bg also: http://www.alt-support-diabetes.org/NewlyDiagnosed.htm -- http://www.ornery-geeks.org/consulting/ |
