Hello, I'm new to this forum and I need help!
I am a type 1 diabetic and have been for the past 18 years. I am very keen to lose weight and have tried several times to do so. I Cannot find a suitable way to do it without my BG's constantly dropping and then I have to have something with carbs/cals in to bring my BG up again thus defeating the whole days efforts to eat sensibly!! I am on an insulin pump and each time I try to lose weight I make sure I drop my insulin to the correct levels so I am not over-dosing...
I am currently immobile following a sports injury which is not helping!
Can anyone help me how they have managed to lose weight with type 1 diabetes?
