[QUOTE="himtoo, post: 890366, member: 142835"] taking [USER=11028]@noblehead[/USER] ' s response on board -- this information is based on my experience of taking mixed insulins for many years. you are correct in that part of the carb needs to come out of the longer acting part of the dose but the main meal at dose time is the fast acting part. it is really difficult to be exact as factors including your weight and physical activity are part of the equation. one of the main ways I accomplished my regime was to eat little and often so breakfast , mid morning snack , lunch , mid afternoon snack , dinner , and finally bed time snack this was a diet that was quite rigid -- not so much in terms of EXACTLY what was eaten but definitely exact in terms of measured ( weighed ) amounts of carbohydrate ar fairly rigid times. for example i ate the exact same breakfast -- no variance for about 12 years and the exact same 1/2 sandwich ( with the same amount of butter and mayonaise ) with the same weight but different meat every bedtime snack for the same 12 years [/QUOTE]
