Weight loss Shakes

[Rrar]

Im type 1, can I use weight loss shakes? Im thinking about having 1 a day for breakfast as they are low in carbs. Thanks

'weight loss shakes' Is typically just meal replacements... I see no reason why you can't have them as long as you adjust your insulin intake to account for them.

Meal replacements, that's what I meant, I just couldn't remember the proper term haha thank you

As long as you bolus accordingly it should be fine.

Thank you

if you are in a rush..if you have some boiled eggs in the fridge, a couple of those are the perfect low carb breakfast, now that the gov have said dietary cholesterol is not a problem. some bolus for about half of the protein

 

[Rrar]

I don't like eggs lol

back to make-out food then
being liquid, mostly simple carbs. they may spike quick, some may need to be careful they don't over bolus

Thanks jack, if I decide to buy some I'll be really careful

Things like Slimfast are full of carbs, unexpectedly so, just a heads up.

I thought they were all full of sugar and caused a spike in BS? I had a look at juice plus but sugars in it, I need to lose 2 stone so any successful ideas let me know! I'm doing low carb and exercise.

Hi. Although you can Bolus to match the carbs that can cause weight gain if the carbs are high, but as you said it's low-carb so should be fine.
