Hi All,

I am re joining Slimming world next week as a referral from the GP, I have been before but never really got far and think it was down to the group.

I also find that in the group they don't understand "hypos" and that we need sugar.

So any tips or hints and how you plan will be great.

Thanks

Cathryn
 
Only tip is to enjoy your time with SW. We have had members with both type 1 and type 2 that have done the SW diet with great success, just be sure to mention your type 1 diabetes and make sure you know the carb value of your food so you can dose adjust.

Also be mindful when you lose weight your insulin requirements may decrease.
 
i tried slimming world 4 years ago and i put weight on so gave up, now my surgery weigh me every month
 
If u check your blood regularly eat more raw veg like kale or spinach then you will be able to reduce your insulin that will mean less hypoglycemias see nutritionist they will help you ::)) alkaline diet the best in the world check on web search you will see it makes sense :)
