[QUOTE="tpaz, post: 1220053, member: 212123"] Everyone is different. A lot of people will say they lost a lot of weight prior to a T1 diagnosis and insulin puts the weight back on them. I had the exact opposite experience. Prior to diagnosis, I had put on a good deal of weight and my BG levels were out of control. Now being on insulin, the weight has steadily come off. I feel when my levels are under control, it's much easier for me to lose weight. There's a lot of mainstream information out there, but it doesn't apply to everyone :) personally, LCHF did not help me with weight. Adding hi fiber grains in a moderate amount (60-80g per day) has been part of my solution to losing weight. I also saw a huge increase in my lipids when on LCHF, that I'm still fighting to bring down. I know this site has a lot of advocates for LCHF, but it wasn't what worked for me and my body. [/QUOTE]
