    T1 ....low carb

    Hi @AnniebT1! I started Low Carb Jan 2015, I did it all in at once, BUT I took NO bolus at meals, I waited 30 min / 1 hour, test and bolused as per test result, after a while I reduced the times and learned the amount to bolus. It worked out fine, but it takes a few months (or many) before you...

    Long term low carb diet for type 1's

    @ALS if you are doing low carb you should be able to take much less than 15g, Bernstein recommends 4g I think. But if not it is really really hard, I often took much more before I went low carb because I get so stressed since I'm low, its the adrenaline I think. Its really called the 15/15 rule.

    How often do you have lows

    My doc have told me that she wants to reduce my lows to none. Of course I want that also but doing so would force me to increase my blood sugar to a level that I don't want to, she does not answer my question on how often the normal amount of lows are. So I decide to check with you guys, to see...

    LCHF diet and type1

    I just got my NovoPen Echo today, I really like it! It have half units (the reason I got it) It feels very good, much higher quality than the prefilled pens. It has a memory function, so it will tell you how long ago you last used it and how many units you took. Can be good now and then when you...

    LCHF diet and type1

    I don't need half unit for basal, I take 7 basal in the morning and 10 at night, 1 more or less does not matter much.

    Travelling with Diabetes medication that is not for me

    You should get documents, I always travel with them, but. I'm a Type 1 diabetic and have traveled with insulin for over 30 years, the few times I have been questioned it has always been the needles they have found (after 9/11 some airports do notice some times), they never bother when they see...

    LCHF diet and type1

    1 Year on LCHF/Bernstein/low carb, for the first time since I got T1 37 years ago I'm in control. I feel much better! 2. Never check ketones, but as long as your blood sugar is OK you do not need to worry. 3. Ignorance, your LDL is to high, you need statins, the diet is bad and will increase...
