[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 938628, member: 17713"] T1 insulin should be around your lifestyle. Ie I eat once a day.. So I was on a pump for a while but back on MDI now. My consultant and nurse don't care that I eat once a day - they just want a regime that fits my eating habits. I don't eat a lot so my regime was tailored around my life style. I have had consultants wanting to change my eating previously but extra carbs for breakfast piled on weight and also they know now that I cannot eat them die to slow colonic transit. Basically it would have made sense for your clinicians to base your insulin around your eating (unless you needed to lose weight etc) than making you change. All T1's as of August should be offered basal bolus so it should not be too awkward to get a change if you need it. [/QUOTE]
