[Diabetes-talk] Spike.

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

Is this what your doctor prescribed? 1500 is usually what people eat
when dieting. Typically, adult women are suppose to eat around 200 a day
and adult men are suppose to eat around 2500 to 3000 calories per day.
And calories are not what necessarily affects blood sugars; it's the
carbs that raise glucose levels and protein that allow for stability of
those levels. Unless trying to lose weight, I would focus more on carbs
and protein making sure the protein is low fat.

Hi,
When I first started watching carbs, that is all I watched I would just
allow myself to have anything I wanted just so I didn't go over 100 g of
carbohydrate per day. After a while I started adding calories to the
mix. I should say the Humalog went away very quickly once I started
watching the carb intake once I started watching calories and weight
came off, Atlanta started dropping off as well. I don't allow myself to
have any more than around 1500 cal per day.
