[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 2279074, member: 21149"] I will add to other posts that I think the Consultant gave poor advice. T1s can't just eat what they want. It all depends on your body's metabolism and other factors. Insulin enables the body to metabolise carbs and like a non-diabetic, if you eat too many you may gain weight and develop insulin resistance. Insulin resistance means you have to inject a lot more insulin to make it work. So control the carbs so you don't gain weight and stay in a good BMI region. [/QUOTE]
