Hi Darlene,

Welcome to the forum!

First you have to decide what plan you want to follow. Many diabetics read Dr. Bernstein’s Diabetic Solution in addition to Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution and Protein Power. For all people who want to low carb, but especially diabetics, it is really important to get as much information as possible about low carbing. Many diabetics have been able to either stop taking medication or have drastically reduced it with the guidance of their doctor.

The amount of carbohydrates you can consume is a very personal “trial and error” thing that you learn as you delve into the low carb way of eating.

We have an Introduction forum that you may want go to and introduce yourself to the members. Then there is the Daily Low Carber forum that is used for general, low carb posting. Very few people read the test forum because it is usually used for testing ground to see how posting works, what pictures will look like etc. I would hate to see your post get lost here because there are many well informed diabetics in this forum.
