Hi gang,
My name is Andrew and I'm a T1D. Starting as a T2 11 years ago I finally upgrade to full T1 status about 1 year ago.
I'm new to these forums, but not new to diabetes. My goal on these forums is to chat to some good peeps, and see if I can help others.
My actual current goal is a Keto diet or at least an LCHF diet. This has a potential to be dangerous for T1D in the first few weeks, but with extra vigilant monitoring, life-changing goodness can be achieved (reduced insulin requirements and burning body fat). I'll keep updating with how it's going (day 4 and I have been taking less insulin, have more alertness/get-up-and-go, feel less tired, less hungry all the time, feel happier and all round good feels).
