For me, that is too high. I keep mine around 30 for the whole day, give or take a few.

I think Sally keeps hers lower than that also, and she does not have diabetes, she does it because she feels better.

Some people notice they feel better when doing a low carb diet and their nueropathy feels better also.

I feel better all they way around. My pn is better, my joints dont ache, my pms, my over all physical and mental well being is better when I keep my carbs around 30 a day.

I did about 30-35 carbs today and my feet dont burn as bad. I dont eat very much meat. A little bit of beef or some pork... I dont like Chicken or Turkey and I cant eat fish. I used to eat alot of breads and cheese But I have limited those and eat more veggies some fruit but not much.

It might be difficult for you if you dont like meat. I love meat, cheese, and eggs, so I get along great.

Glad you felt better. My life is 90% better since giving up bread, pasta, and simple carbs and sticking to 30 grams a day.

I still eat rye bread and some wheat bread. I saw a post about different kinds of flours like coconut I will have to hit the health food store and look around.
The stores here make sugar free cakes and pies but they have too many carbs in them for my liking. My feet dont burn this morning just a slight dull ache I hope today will be another good day.

I don't eat bread anymore, instead I use low carb fagita's. But I know they make lower carb bread.
