[QUOTE="ButtterflyLady, post: 922878, member: 43498"] Thanks [USER=48386]@Indy51[/USER] . So, if a T1 eats normal/high carb, they will need more insulin, and their BG will have higher highs and lower lows, and more frequent swings? It's going to be hard for me to have this conversation with my friend, because I really hesitate to discuss it with him, because I don't want to appear to overstep the mark. I want to be able to get the info across as quickly and simply as possible. I strongly believe we should let people do what they want with their own health, but it's hard when you care about someone who is in their 20s, has T1, eats a high carb diet and is getting overweight. I worry about him getting complications in the future - and he has a long future with T1 ahead of him. :( But I don't want to alienate him and be "that person", know what I mean? [/QUOTE]
