I don't know any diabetics who use the exchange system anymore (though I'm sure there are a few). Most of us have switched over to counting carbohydrates for insulin purposes.

Has your nutritionist explained why he/she doesn't want you to count calories?

On a more personal note, I need to get my body fat measured. I know it's winter, but 137 is not an acceptable number to see on the scale. I'll be jumping in for the March/April challenge!
