[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 1567374, member: 345386"] Hi Strachan - Many folks find that reducing carbs helps them trim up, and also some T1s find a lower carb way of eating reduces the amount of highs and lows they have, which tends to mean smaller insulin doses. If you are considering changing how you eat by reducing your carbs, it is important you are comfortable with the prospect that you may well have to also adjust your insulin as a result. If you're not comfortable with the prospect of safely altering your doses, it's best to discuss it with your team before doing anything. There are a number of Low Carb T1 posters, but you might find more content tailored to your own specific circumstances by rummaging around on the T1 area. There have been some threads on the topic. The T1 area is here: [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/category/type-1-diabetes.19/[/URL] Please don't think I'm telling you off or suggesting you shouldn't be on this thread; that's just not the case. I think that this thread has mainly T2 posters and could end up being a bit confusing in your early days. Good luck with it all Strachan. You're on a very steep learning curve. [/QUOTE]
