[QUOTE="Robinredbreast, post: 616830, member: 44643"] HI and welcome to the forum. I am 8 st 13lb, and age 56, type 1 for 25 years. when diagnosed I was just over 7 stone and then the weight started to go back on with the Insulin. I have always weighed about 8 1/2 stone, but just a little more over the years, I am normally a very active person, always on the go so that keeps the weight down, and no middle age spread yet lol but you are newly diagnosed and it will a little time for your body to get used to being type 1, its a lot to take in and can be a shock on the body too. I am not low carb at all, but have reduced carb intake as that means less insulin. I'm sure you will find good diabetes management, one that you are happy with and that works for you. good luck :) [/QUOTE]
