Hi all,
In the light of so many people needing (and not getting) to go on a course for carb counting. I was thinking it may be a good idea to start a 'carb counting' thread.
Starting with very basic and simple carb counting - giving examples etc and then leading to the more complicated % increases for fats etc and also a general explanation of how and when to split doses.
When Alex was diagnosed i would have loved to find such a thread, not too detailed - just enough to understand the basics. Also listing foods that have carbs in and perhaps a list of 'spikey foods'.
I realise that different foods do different things to people - but it would be a starting point at least and then people could tweak as they go!
Adrienne teaches groups carb counting and i think she would be great to start this off. (Adrienne - i hope you dont mind?)🙂Bev
