    Sorry to hear about your diagnosis, good luck with managing your carbs. I hear keto is good for diabetes

    Hi welcome im new here too. Sorry for your diagnosis but I’ve read a lot of stories where people can reverse a lot of conditions. Stay positive and take it one day at a time. Embrace the chance with a good approach.  
    As for Myself I ordered those Keto strips from amazon. I paid $6 for 150 strips. They should arrive today. I recommend them if you don’t have them. To me is a motivation every morning to see I hit  ketosis. Keep your head up !

    This app is godsend for t1d, in terms of tracking net carbs and obtaining glycemic loads for portions, from experience. Please consider, however, that you do not need to be in ketosis to control your blood sugars (also from experience), and that therefore many of the keto recommendations (the macro ratio, for instance) do not necessarily apply to you if your goal is blood sugar control and not weight loss. Hope this helps and good luck, it's a lot of work but it's doable.
