I had been aware of this T1D but had not yet seen his results so your link provided the fuller picture of what and how he achieved the results he got over the three week period.Comparing our two regimes, he's on CGM monitoring and insulin pump bolus injection, whilst I am using a manual finger prick BGM and manual daily basal injection and multiple daily bolus injections. He is more focused on retaining muscle bulk with 58% Fat and 36% Protein and 6% Carbs, whilst I am more focused on best BG level I can achieve (currently HbA1c is 44 mmol/mol or 6.4%), and a leaner build, so I've gone for 63% Fat, 28% Protein, 9% Carbs. The energy intake provided by the higher Fat% kcal (Calorie) content ensures the LCHF Ketosis state stays active i.e. Fat burning mode (as opposed to Carb burning mode and the subsequent requirement of more insulin to compensate for the extra glucose released from the gut).All in all we seem to be singing from the same hymn sheet.Thanks again for the linkAll the best.</blockquote>
