I hope you are on your way to mending. What's your total Calorific intake per day and how much insulin are you using? Many of us who have lost weight eating low carb have had to run a calorie deficit in order to lose weight. In addition, if you are immobile, it's likely you will also be using a higher insulin dose. Are you using a Basal/Bolus regime and if so have you checked your insulin levels and confirmed they are correct (e.g. Basal Tested <a href="https://mysugr.com/basal-rate-testing/" target="_blank">https://mysugr.com/basal-rate-testing/</a> and understand you Insulin Carb ratios <a href="http://www.bdec-e-learning.com/" target="_blank">http://www.bdec-e-learning.com/</a>).How immobile are you? Would you, for example, be able to use hand weights or something similar to do a low level of exercise while seated? This would also help with insulin sensitivity. Feel free to ask questions as much as you like!</blockquote>
