Too many carbs!!!

As a general rule, there isn't anything that you can't go over once in a great while. As long as you keep with the program and don't constantly go over on anything it won't make too much of a difference. I posted a great article in here from webmd that talks about this exact issue. The expert basically says, one giant piece of chocolate cake won't make you gain 3 pounds, it's the every day consumption that needs to be watched.

Hey! As a hypoglycemic I must be careful what and how many carbs I have.
How many carbs do want to have daily? Can you substitute something else, ex; mashed cauliflower for potatoes, Splenda for sugar, soy or almond flour for some of the wheat?
Are you low/controll carbing? I try to keep mine within 10 grams of my goal, but remember that the more often you stretch that gram count the more likely you are to stretch it more.
Say your carb count is 40 per day and you go over by 9. Okay, so you get back on track the next day. But let's say that you stay within 10 grams of that 40, you will find yourself staying at or near 50 often and then stretching that to over 50 and even higher.
As banks says once in a great while is like a lesson learned...move on.
If you are on an Atkins style diet where you are living a controlled carb diet, then be sure not to mix too much animal fat with carb if you want to have alot of carbs. The cheap carbs mixed with animal fat leads to health issues and failure in dieting.
So you went over by 9...just don't do it for a long time...and you will be happy.
I fail sometimes, but now I don't beat myself up over it...I move on and get my eating back in gear the very next day.
Good Luck
