Hi. As a T1D of 52 years I eat toast for breakfast with egg, bacon, sausage etc occasionally. Or toast with Peanut butter and marmite. I bake my own bread in bread machine twice a week following Keto King bread recipe.....it's very good, toasts well, can be frozen or eaten as sandwiches. This...

1971 for me. Scared of the needles as they got more blunt over the weeks, so tried a hypoguard injector to help them go in...which I relied on for years. One injection a day by mixing two insulins supposed to last 24 hours.....so what happened when you had a bag of chips after a few pints late...

Type 1 diabetic. No problems with BG levels....slow release usually over the whole morning, without a spike.

I swear by baked beans, third of a can, and one slicce of toast. Total 40 carbs, slow release and I can last til lunch....perhaps add slice if bacon or sausage if available. Yum yum, and coffee, if course!
