Labrat,
My son is a type 1 diabetic. So I know some stuff about diabetes. did your Dr put you on a diet meal plan? If so let me know how many calories in English he gave you and I can tell you some type of meal plan you should follow. Now i know type 1 is different then adult onset. I know with all diabetic diets you have to eat so many fats, startches, fruits, protein, meats,dairy products.It's important to eat a balance diet.
