[QUOTE="nataliegage, post: 333808, member: 53524"] Have always watched my carbohydrate intake as I had so many side effects from various insulins I have been on for 60 (sixty just in case you think I've accidentally added a zero) years. Obviously I recognise the start of a hypo and deal with it immediately, which is the only contraindication for low carb intake. As with all your other low carb forum members. I have remained on low insulin, taking 10 units lantus and 16 to 20 units of Novorapid daily. Not bad considering the time I've been diabetic. I take a maximum of 100 grams carbohydrate a day, but mainly live on proteins. I have to watch my fat intake due to other age-related medical problems. When I was first diagnosed it was a diet based on watching my bread, pots and milk intake and keep off anything sweet. Just didn't work for me. Glad to hear other memberss are having success with a similar diet to mine, which the Diabetic Clinics used to frown on. But we are all different and what suits one doesn't necessarily suit the other. Good luck and happy forum-ing Natalie [/QUOTE]
