Hi All

I’m a type 1 of 48 years and starting again on Low Carb. I inject Novarapid and Lantus.

I split the Lantus into 2 injections, morning and evening

A high protein meal significantly increases my BS so I’m injecting for carbs with the meal and the protein approximately an hour later.

I’m counting 20g of protein as 10g of carbs for insulin purposes.

I’m currently on week 1 of LC and looking for any advice.

Thanks in advance
