E. CUT YOUR DAILY CARBOHYDRATE/STARCH INTAKE BY ONE HALF. 1. Calculate the number of grams of carbohydrates/starches you eat per day by adding up the number of grams of all of your carbohydrates and starches you eat and divide by seven. 2. Whatever that number of grams of carbohydrates and starches is per day begin to eat only that amount per day (example of an average 500 grams/day = 250 grams carbohydrates/starches per day) F. Decrease your insulin and/or oral diabetic drugs by one half 1. Use your glucometer as often as once per hour if necessary to make sure that your glucose does not go below 60 and if so eat some fast acting carbohydrates, like orange juice to keep it 60 or more. 2.

As your glucose level stabilizes stop taking all oral diabetic drugs 2. If you have been using insulin slowly and carefully decrease the daily number of units and number of insulin injections as you decrease the number of grams carbohydrates and starches. 3.
