[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2291395, member: 345386"] The reason I asked was many folks, livin with T1 have reported that they find if they run high numbers for a while, they lose weight, so it could be that may have been happening to you, in the past. Of course we have no way of knowing, rather than my speculating, but maybe just something else in the mix. You seem to have been adjusting your basal insulin in 2 unit amounts. Is that correct, and is there any reason your team suggested 2 units as opposed to one, as from what you are saying +2 is too much and you go low, and -2 and your numbers are high? Have you done a carb counting course, like DAFNE, or BERTIE? That might be something to help with the changes you seem to be experiencing. To be clear, I'm neither T1, nor an insulin user, but more just observing and playing back some of the things you say. [/QUOTE]
