Hi everyone ..
I first learned about low carb diet in this forum ..reading others stories and experiments

I did good a1c went down from 10 to 6.5
I hope I make it even better

Now to come to the problem
Lately I allowed Carbs into my diet
At the beginning small amounts then increasing it

Now I lost control on it
Instead of 4 units novo taking 8 and still don't get good results
There is another problem I have may be the cause.. My inject sites are swollen a little bit ( was taking it at limited area of my legs and arms and most of the time in my belly ) I'm also underweight so it effects me more

Asking for a plan to go back to lc diet
Before I was taking 11 U of lantus
2 U of novo before meals
Sometimes up to 4 and sometimes none

And I don't know my bolus and basal and that stuff xD cuz I'm new in the club ..maybe 9 months
And still didn't meet a dietitian

I know what I'm asking for is difficult to help with..
But try your best until I meet a dietitian.

Thank you
 
Right now I had hypo symptoms when I tested it it was 139
( of course that will happen after the meal I had in college )
Took one two slices of white bread :( with okra hoping it do some of the insullin work
And piece of fish
After two hours I got hungry during a 4 hours class so took one bar of snickers
I forgot to take my insullin with me :(
 
I think Christmas did it for me. I relaxed and enjoyed a really 'normal' Christmas day but haven't been able to come back on track - its just impossible to ignore those tins of biscuits and boxes of chorolates we were given (I know where they've been hidden) and I've stopped testing because I don't want to know ................. Serious help needed!

Join the club bro xD
But I did it a little bit slower and longer term
I think my case would be worse :(
