[QUOTE="Waterfall 888, post: 2211511, member: 519313"] Glad you posted. I am a newbie of 4mths too who also went into a type 1 diagnosis through a diabetic coma. I found lots of eating avoided hypos especially wholemeal food. Eating wholemeal toast before bed helped eliminate night time lows. During the day I ate every 2 hrs only fruit - berries, keeping carb snacks to 10g max and dairy/veg/meat.snacks. In honeymoon period now, off basal insulin and taking low doses of bolus only when I eat carbs. Not ideal eating carb free , meat, veg and cheese only makes me lose too much weight. If I eat carbs my bg goes very high. Don't have the bolus dosage right and I might need to get back on basal. Had no education about carb counting. I understand when you say it affects your day. I find it all exhausting and try not to let it take over my day. But you can't ignore diabetes. Wish you well on your journey. [/QUOTE]
