[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2080089, member: 345386"] Carl, have you discussed how high your bloods go, as you describe here? If so, what was their response? If your weight loss is due to uncontrolled blood sugars, then it'll likely be very difficult to regain weight until that situation is largely resolved. The treatment you have been given to you is still quite unusual for T1s. It's more usually a treatment given to T2s. Whilst many T1s find they can eat as they alwways did, and balance out their blood sugars by dosing and timing their insulin doses skillfully, for most T2s, they have to manage their diet too, to limit the foods that drive their blood numbers up. Managing food to keep the bloods moderated doesn't mean eating small amounts, it's about eating fewer carbs, and balancing the protein and fats to keep the numbers and weight in balance. I'm not sure what your team expect of you; whether they are just seeing how it goes, or if they are expecting you to work to keep the numbers in range, on the meds you have been given for aas long as possible.
