Anyone else T1 and keto?

I recently started the ketogenic diet. I am type one diabetic and on an insulin pump. I have gotten my daily insulin intake down from 74-96 units a day to a stabilized 36. This is insane! I have also lost 10 pounds so far. Every morning I wake up feeling lighter. This is literally saving my life and my money. I can't believe that this way of life isn't taught to diabetics. Its easy especially when you are already tracking your carbs and the food is delicious. My husband is just amazed and we are so thankful for keto.

Not a D, but mother is t2. Congrats! So excited to hear of successes with Keto! I can't believe it isn't presented as an option. Is you doc or nutritionist supportive or are you on you own?
