The aim of the proposed study is to investigate the metabolic consequences of varying the timing of meal insulin boluses and skipping boluses altogether in individuals with type 1 diabetes. The investigator hypothesize that delaying or skipping meal insulin boluses leads to greater ectopic fat storage due to a delayed stimulation of lipoprotein activity and delayed suppression of lipolysis and VLDL-TG secretion.
