[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 1981170, member: 365308"] To offer an alternate view, just like with type 2s if you are used to fuelling on carbs and you then go low carb you will notice that your body is craving the carbs because that is what it is used to. If you choose to go low carb you can adapt and do steady state exercise fuelled from the thousands of kcals stoed on your body rather than the limited fuel tank that is your muscles. I am not anti carb because for us type 1s, we cannot reverse our condition by eating less carbs. I choose to eat less carbs because I find it very tricky to dose correctly with them. I also do enough endurance and strength exercise to know that I don't need them. [/QUOTE]
