[QUOTE="Kateyo, post: 1620023, member: 283339"] I've just been reading through this thread and it sounds so familiar! I have tried the Dr B approach before and gave up and have tried again this week but I find it to be so unpredictable and really difficult to manage. I actually find my control to be better on lower carb rather than LCHP/F. I use Fiasp, which does run out quicker than novorapid for me but take tonight for example I had steak burger with avocado for dinner and sat steady for 2-2.5 hours, I seen my BS start to creep up so took another few units to try and prevent it climbing further but it was too late and I went up into the 8s (v.quickly!) having sat in 4s for the couple hours after the meal. The same thing happened this morning after having made LC pancakes. I use dexcom so am always watching for any change. I would love to achieve the numbers those who successfully low carb do but I just don't know that it works for me, I wish it would :( Hope that you can find a way to work with protein/fat, it looks great if you can work with the gluconeogenesis/delayed absorption from fat.
