[QUOTE="azure, post: 1480810, member: 39639"] [USER=401781]@gavin86[/USER] No, I don't count protein. Like many Type 1s, I find it's only protein in the absence of carbs that needs to be counted. As you say, it's harder to bolus correctly for a meal containing protein and no/minimal carbs. I generally avoid such meals. If you look at the Type 1 section, you'll see a few threads asking a similar question. As the majority of Type 1s here eat moderate carbs it's not an issue unless the amount of protein is large. Would you like me to move your thread to Type 1? [/QUOTE]
