[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2200486, member: 372207"] Depends. Are you adjusting your insulin doses to reflect the amount of carbs you eat? Are you adjusting your doses based on what your meter tells you and testing a lot? Are you comfortable in your knowledge on how carbs and insulin doses work together in your body? If the answer to either of those questions is 'not really', I'd be very careful with suddenly eating a complete different amount of carbs than you usually do. It may not only affect the amount of mealtime insulin you need but your long acting as well. Eating fewer carbs can be very helpful in managing T1, but doing so with not enough information and knowledge may land you in hospital. [/QUOTE]
