Blue- I am very sorry for your loss. I am very glad you are taking steps to take care of yourself, I'm sure that is what your father would hope you are able to do.

I eat 30-35 carbs per day (I do subtract fiber). I'm in maintenance, but carbs are the same to lose weight and the same to gain after a very long illness left me seriously underweight.

I don't feel well at ALL if I go in twenties consistently. I get dizzy, and my blood pressure drops to point that I get head rushes and feel faint. I have problems with my electrolytes, etc..... Granted in a type one diabetic, very thin and very active- my point is, we are all different.

How are YOU feeling?
