[QUOTE="kev-w, post: 1899439, member: 452484"] The honeymoon period wasn't a consideration 30 odd years back, weight based dosing and away you go, I was talking about similar somewhere else as I used to say to my Dr that some days it was like I was making insulin (crazy hypos) and I was into sport, and that happened for years. I don't low carb, there's occasions where I'll reduce them but as I always say, there's carbs and there's carbs, I find I can usually match the carbs to my fast acting insulin, the plates of food I've shown on the food bit are what I've lived on for a long time, I've not had an HBa1c over 59 in 34 years. But it's horses for courses is living with T1D, what works for one doesn't work for another, and again but... Insulin is the hormone that allows the body to metabolise carbs, I'm obliged to inject insulin so I eat carbs whose digestion speed broadly mimics my insulin absorption, of course I can get it wrong :) but for me it broadly works....
