[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1987288, member: 53162"] I think from a blood glucose point of view is that if you can manage your insulin to suit the food passing your lips and avoid going high then there's no reason why you can't eat what you want, the whole point to taking quick acting insulin is that you manage the carbs eaten with the insulin taken, or pre-bolus to avoid the spike and going high without the need for corrections, then what you eat is your decision, I know it's incredibly over whelming for newbies to get diet rammed down their necks when they are trying to manage life and living with insulin and diabetes, but if you are finding that your levels are soaring north and south then you need to review what and how much you eat to cope with this and of course review your insulin ratios too which can change during the course of the day and dependent on your activity levels. A note to all - this is a type 1 thread in the type 1 section, please also remain on topic :) [/QUOTE]
