Hi Everyone,
I want to switch to Keto diet. I have done a fair bit of research into what I should eat what I shouldn't eat, meal prep, macros etc..
What I am really looking to find out is how people managed there insulin intake when switching to this, did regular hypos occur when doing this? I do plan to reach out to my DSN prior to starting this but I wanted to get some feedback from people who have made the switch and are having success with better glucose control (reduced HBA1C) and significant weigh loss.
I should ass that I am currently taking 10 mmol of Levemir on wake up and before bed. Fiasp for meals. I have refillable pens that have a minimum dose of 1 mmol.
Has anyone had to switch to a 0.5 mmol pen after switching to keto.
Any other advice you can offer would be great,
TIA
Gregor
