[QUOTE="Tony and caz, post: 527643, member: 106161"] We have also just returned from a holiday in the USA where our 11 year old son was diagnosed with T1 and spent the last week in hospital out there. A total shock as we just thought it was jet lag and the heat that was affecting him. Had to take him to A&E as we thought it must be heat stroke or something. His blood sugar measured 33 when admitted. They then told us the diagnosis. Now back in the uk and trying to get a good routine going. He had also lost around 8Ib in a week and looked so thin. That upset us the most to see him that thin as we have been starving him. Felt very guilty and was quite upsetting. He has now regained his weight and looks so much healthier. Just a little unsure on how strict we need to be with meal planning? We do eat healthy meals but do we need to start meaning all of his veg and stuff with cups and scales? Any help would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
