Period. You simply have to keep track of ALL carb Calories... whether they're sugar or starch. You can eat pretty much anything you want as long as you have enough insulin to process the resultant glucose that is converted from the food you eat. You really need to learn all you can about glycemic index and glycemic load. You should always remember this, though. Avoid giving up healthy Calories in favor of unhealthy Calories. In other words an apple, with it's 85 Calories, is far better than a Glucerna bar, with it's 150 Calories.

Tell them that you aren't sure what they mean and it is important that you know. If they don't want to take the time to help you, then you need a different doctor who cares about you. Second, you need to find out what level they want you to try to maintain your blood sugar (glucose). I am sure you can eat some things in small quantities but you have to monitor yourself. It is probably better if you go for sugar free candies. I think you can still have diet soda as long as it is sugar free.
