Hi - since I've seriously started low carbing in last 2 weeks I haven't had any hypos. That's great stuff though.

Oooh I tried steamed cauli florets blended down into a purée with some cream, coconut oil & salt n pepper - delicious!!!!

Just watched this. Fantastic stuff!

Me too - 9 bars (original) have little effect on my sugars either.

Fab summary @cold ethyl! You're dead right. Still dreading Xmas treats or lack of but looking forward to all the other stuff! Yes cheese is defo my friend & I'm never far away from a Macadamia or an Almond!!!

Oooh cauli rice is delish - actually prefer it to rice! My treat of a square of dark choc on the evenings - I really look forward to that or sometimes a spoon of clotted cream & a few raspberries!!! Yum!

Cool @Enclave - I seem to eat out quite a bit of late. . Yes long time being veggie but not as long being type 1 & only seriously low carbing for short while so don't eat: pasta, rice, lentils, couscous, noodles etc but will expand my recipes. Thanks

& Enclave - thanks I know this is the dilemma though as feel my diet is now so restrictive & not sure whether to go back to eating fish! How do u cope? Yes guess u r right but panicking about all those carbs: roast pots, stuffing, mince pies, port, Xmas pud!!! Arrrgh! Thanks :-)

Thank you @bluetit - yes I guess you're right regarding 1 day - just panic about coming out of ketosis & all the temptations as I LOVE mince pies, Xmas pud etc - will investigate low carb baking more! Thanks for the reply.

Hi all - just a question for those of you experienced LCHFs: I have been medium - low carb for a while but for the last 10 days eating less than 30g cho. My readings have been amazing & I feel great so inspiration to continue. My question is - what do you do when Christmas comes? Or you dine...

Well done Keith - that's fabulous!

I have a couple of squares of dark choc in the eve or some Macadamia nuts!

Completed - good luck with your course.

Around 10 a week

Hi Cookiebell - I split my Lantus as advised by my DSN. I take 10 units in the morning and 10 units in the evening. This works well for me and if I'm doing aerobics in the morning I minus a couple of units. HTH.

I guess the fact that everything is closely monitored at the hospital eg: b/p, cholesterol, thyroid etc - peace of mind. O and being able to eat a few sweets after a hypo!!!!! :-)

Oh I am REALLY craving chocolate right now! Have none in - so will make do with a glass of red! :-) Happy days!
