Type 1 weight lifters

[Beav]

Hello, are there many type 1 diabetics here who are regular weight trainers? If so could you leave me your skype or MSN address either in this thread or PM it to me. Would be nice to talk about the type of foods you eat to help with diabetes and are foods used within weight training as well as insulin injections.

~Thanks in advance

Hope some of our more athletic members got in touch with you.

I am not a weight trainer but I would suggest that control of carbs is an essential part of any athletic or body building routine and control of Blood Glucose is probably a lot better than if you were a couch potato. I am a regular horse rider and spend a lot of time being physically active so far my BG is pretty stable...
