Indeed cutting out carbohydrates is the easiest way to loose weight in my experience too. Please note that we are not talking extreme measures here - there are plenty of carbohydrates in food. We're talking getting rid of the crap variety. Avoiding or completely skipping starchy foods (white bread, rice, potatoes) is the key to controlling blood sugar levels. It's not about avoiding sugar drops - its more about avoiding blood sugar spikes these foods cause. Please note - that potatoes are not necessarily bad - if you eat them whole (much easier with young potatoes) and add extra fiber. But sugar, white flour and rice are horrible, horrible foods.
