Dear brightontez,
Just to make Northerers prediction come true I'm responding as a "controlled carber" In fact previous responders have already given you the answer. The way forward is to set yourself, maybe in conjunction with your diabetes team, some targets and then eat sufficent carbohydrates so that you meet or stay below them. These are the ones that I use:
1. HbA1c less than 6%
2. Fasting blood sugar less than 6mmol/L
3. 1 hour after meals less than 6.9mmol/L
4. 2 hour after meals - same as pre-meal value, but no worse than 6.0mmol/L
Clearly, I can't make any recommendations, but as a general rule, the closer to "normal" that you get the better it will be regarding future complications. We are all different and so taking "standard" values (300gms???) for daily carb intake may be totally wrong for you. There are several methods of achieving your targets, as to a reference, I found a book by Jenny Ruhl (see books thread) to be good, but there are others. The levels that Vanessa quoted may well be OK for you, but you won't know unless you test test test!
Regards Dodger
