Hi all,
I am a 21 year old type 1 Diabetic and have been for over 10 years now. i regularly go to the gym, often 5/6 times per week as part of weight training. I also use the gym for high intensity classes like metafit/insanity and spin classes along with 2 nights per week football training. i am trying to cut down my body fat at the moment and doing so by lowering my insulin and carb levels.
However my problem is this, i have been trying to cut out carbs after 6pm as it can be stored as fat when sleeping. As a result of this ive been having hypos during the night which results me in binge eating anything i can get my hands on really
this has made it difficult to achieve the results i want and often messing all my blood sugars for the day ahead ( due to the mid night hypo-binge eating)
is there anyone on here that can help or has any advice?
much appreciated, steven
