type 1 and overweight

Turtlesrcool

I am a type 1 diabetic and could stand to lose at least 40 pounds. Any low carb and low fat recipes would be appreciated. Any advice from other type 1's also appreciated.

Hello there! I also have T1D and am overweight, needing to lose quite a bit. I have found that the Hungry Girl recipe books are great; they are simple recipes that give you the low down on the nutrition upfront. Please feel free to add me!

Hello I have been type 1 since I was 9 Yeats old (38) now. I'm new here but not to the diet game. I am 5'4 and 154 and want to lose @ 24 pounds. Ive lost the weight b4 and when I make up my mind I can get alittle obcessive @ it. My problem is I get bord after a while and end up gaining everything back again. I'm hoping this will the year it sticks.
