[QUOTE="michita, post: 2060013, member: 371071"] Hi, I was diagnosed 3 years ago and went on a strict low carb high fat diet straight away and I’m still on the diet and I feel it’s the right diet being T1 for me. The lchf diet suites me well, my bs level is good and I have less to worry about. But after 3 years I am less strict... If you are type 1 you have the option in terms of how much carbs to eat and it’s entirely up to you to decide the amount of carbs you eat and feel comfortable and be in control. You can gain weight on a lchf diet. I gained 7 or 8kg. You just need to up your fat and protein intake, fat especially. Personally I believe strongly that HCPs should recommend a lchf diet as an option to manage type 1 but sadly that’s usually not the case. Good luck and all the best :) [/QUOTE]
