It is usually recommended to have around 130 to 140 grams of carbs daily. Just take it slow and don't worry too much, you will learn to manage this comfortably with time.

Honestly, counting carbs when you are running on 4 hours of sleep is next level difficult. Usually, 130 grams is the standard daily suggestion, but some days I just try not to eat the entire bread packet. Definitely check with your doctor for a realistic plan!

I am quite new to this since my grandmother was just diagnosed. I read that around 130 grams of carbs per day is okay, but I am really scared of making a mistake. Does anyone know if we should count carbs in milk as well?

Instead of buying fancy low-carb foods, just stick to our normal home food. Eat two wheat chapatis instead of rice and have plenty of seasonal green vegetables to keep carbs around 130g. This is practical, cheap, and very easy to follow daily.
