I limit my carbs to less than 20 per day.

Is there a way in GB to see what my total carb count is at any point throughout the day without having to add it up in the log ?

I use myfitnesspal for over 3 years. You're able to keep track of your food & exercise.

Reading all the post here is very educational. I've been type 2 for 2 yrs now and my a1c is 7.0 . My BS is going yoyo everyday and so with my diet. It's really hard to work with Diet and Exercise if you are going trough so much STRESS !!! I'm still not giving up though ... Hopefully all your advice here will me somehow .

I have no idea how to count carbs they got a schedule to go to a diabetes nutrition class so hopefully that will help

I was recently diagnosed with t2. My ggrandmother died from complications of t2, my grandmother had t2, my mother died from complications of t2 and my sister has t2. I do not want to die from complications of t2.
I was diagnosed in mid June and scheduled to see a diabetic educator in mid July. I decided to educate myself (I'm a 68 yo retired paramedic) on what I needed to do to get myself on track. After a lot research I had an idea on exactly what I needed to do. I bought several books which included books by a Seattle cardiologist, Dr Rob Thompson. Following his recommendations for a low glycemic load diet and walking I am feeling great and have lost 16 lbs since June 16. I use a Fitbit Charge HR and use it to guide me and keep me honest. I walk 3 1/2 miles in the morning and try to get at least 5 miles during the whole day. I don't see the Dr again until Sept 9th. I have 30 lbs to lose but this plan has made it pretty easy. More over, I think I can live this plan.
