    I'm type 1 also. Are you on a pump or cgm? I was able to work closely with my dr last summer to test my basal rates so I rarely go low. It was hard work to figure it out but worth it. MDI is harder for many because you can't fine tune your long acting insulin as much. Other advice: glucose tabs give the most bang for your buck calorie wise imo. 4 tabs are only 60 calories.

    I'm with you. I HATE eating for a low.
