I've been thinking...

When I was pregnant with dd I got gestational diabetes. I was able to stick to a healthy diet and didn't need insulin. I learned how to count carbs and keep my calorie intake at 1500. That has stuck with me for the past 3 years. My diet has not been the best up until recently. I'm thinking of going back on that diet. I think it would be better for me in the long run. What do you ladies think of it?

I guess as long as the calories are enough for you, then go for it. If it ends up not being as easy as before, you can always tweak it.

It depends on where you're getting your carbs from. Get them from fruits & veggies and it'll be a lot healthier than if you eat them in the form of "low-fat" food products or pasta/bread/cereals made with refined grains and sugar.
