Hi
Sorry its not a party invite! Looking up carbs for this for wine, white and red. It varies from zero to say 7 per glass (150 ml?) Port is more varied, again 7 to up to 20. Taylors and Cockburns LBV my fave. Just 50 ml glass saturday and sunday.Am counting the carbs as recommended and woder if this would fit in? I also like one square of dark choc with this! If i go up to say 150 ish carbs on weekends is this ok?
Thanks
 
The only way to find out, is test your BG before and after.
 
HI
Thanks for getting back. Yes am starting to test soon! It was just info on the carbs I wanted to see if my lower carb intake was on track. It looks like red wine zero ish carbs, white about 5 carbs per 150 glass. porn around 7 to 10 for 50ml. One square bark choc, 20g is 9 ish carbs!
