[QUOTE="justadad, post: 1479435, member: 373519"] Hi [USER=390725]@Sl1990[/USER] If he tends to be high, then I think you are sending him the right food. Happy to share our routine, but my son is rarely high when in school, so this might not be very helpful for you. 2 snacks at school, one in the morning, one in the afternoon. At school, they are quite active outdoors, and his sugars do tend to drop to the low margin, so we avoid very low carb snacks. The variety we choose from: fruit yogurt (5 carbs per 100 grams - this one is very convenient because it comes in some 5-6 varieties, so he doesn't get bored with the same flavour), a small green apple or a pear (app. 10-15 carbs per 100), a handful of cherries, sour cherries or strawberries (10-15 carbs per 100), 2 rice cakes (16 carbs per 20), low sugar cereal bar 15 carbs per 35 gram bar), stevia sweetened chocolate (10 carbs per 20 gram of chocolate). We do not bolus for snacks. These quantities normally do not raise his sugars over 8 mmol. This is what works for us, for the time being. Cheers [/QUOTE]
