Hi jgallo,

I too joined a diabetes management class. When I was given the diet, containing 45 grams of carb per meal, three times a day, and 30 grams in one snack per day, I knew I was in trouble. Sure enough...I started the diet and monitored my sugar several times a day for a week. My sugars were running in the high 100's to mid 200's. I did manage to loose 5 pounds that week. However...I was afraid with my sugars running high and decided that I needed to get on a lower carb diet. At this point it is scary to have to pick weight loss or sugar control. I am just going one day at a time. But have definately opted for lower carbohydrate eating. It just makes sense. Hope you get things together.
