I said that originally because I just get sick of some people pushing others
to low carb as if that is all we need to do. Just because it works for them
doesn't mean it will work for all.

I do not take Lantus any more. It does nothing for me. I take 75/25, N and
Humalog. That's 4 kinds of insulin along with 2 diabetes meds. And at no
time can I eat whatever I want. Even if I did want to low carb, I can't do
it because it doesn't work with my gastroparesis and it causes my BG to go
even higher.
