Insulin
Recently on holiday I mixed up my insulin and didn't take enough. We were in LA for a month so couldn't get any replacement. For two weeks I took 20 units each morning instead of 22 unit morning and evening. I was very careful with my food and kept my BS relatively low. When I came home my bloods Hbc1 is 60 was 75 plus my weight has dropped from 12.2 to 10.8 . My insulin remains at 20 and B.S. between 6.4 and 9.8 . Sometimes I even feel hypo . I am so very pleased
 
Very well done.....but do you think it was the reduction in insulin or being more careful with your diet (or both?) - main thing is, you've shown it can be done! Result!
