[quote=Anonymous]I have a T1D kid. I would find out the kid's favorite meal and make that but slightly altered if it's a carb-heavy meal. Seriously. There's so much new information you're taking in when they're first diagnosed that it is overwhelming. Also, the kid is probably overwhelmed with learning to examine the nutritional content of foods to count carbs, etc. T1D isn't like T2D. There are no foods that are 100% off limits. The bad stuff, like chips and processed foods, can still be eaten, but in moderation. You can make the healthiest meal for a T1D within their carb limit for that meal and they may still spike. T1D is an evil game to have to play for life. :( [/quote]
