[QUOTE="Marie 2, post: 2278479, member: 475037"] The forum has some type 1's that are low carb. But the low carbers are mostly type 2's. I would say many more type 1's are not low carbers. You take whatever insulin you need to take to control your blood sugars. I take an average of about 45 units total a day. It's what ever I need to take to cover the carbs I eat. Mine is 24 units of basal a day and the rest is 20-30 units of bolus. Don't feel bad about the amount of insulin at all. We all can vary a lot. The only problem is if you eat too much, then you take too much insulin, then you gain weight. [/QUOTE]
