New to Low Carb

[CFlem88]

Hi

I have been type 1 diabetic for almost a year and I'm just now getting my head around it.

I was brought up on cereal/toast for breakfast, sandwhich for lunch and pasta/rice/potatoes for dinner. So the idea of low carb is quite daughnting but I realise its the way forward.

I'm looking at the possibility of starting off at daily carbs of 100-125g for a couple of weeks are gradually bringing it down to lower level.

Is there any website I could check out for meal ideas and recipes

Thanks

There many good websites with low carb recipes, @CFlem88. Try dietdoctor.com and https://www.ibreatheimhungry.com, but there are others too.

Keeping my fingers crossed this will get you were you want to be with blood sugar control.

Lots of advice on low carb on this forum, but please be very careful with your insulin dosing. Are you carb counting and comfortable with adjusting your insulin to the carbs you eat?

Would under grams of carbs per day be classed as low carb? Or does it need to be less?
