I'm on LCHF, but I still want to have min daily amount of carbs. Is doing something like this safe?
I'm doing a little bit more basal that it's needed to keep bg steady, for instance if my bg was 6.0 at some point, it then slowly drops to around 4.5 (in 3-4 hours).
Then I eat some carbs (20-30g, like small muffin) and don't do any bolus insulin. Bg is usually 7-7.5 after that. Then it repeats again. I don't eat any carbs (or very little) during my usual meals.
This looks to be perfect for me, I don't have to do bolus and still get enough carbs. Has anyone tried something like this?
