Evening all,
Just after some idea as to how much insulin you take I am day, as I am curious about HFLC diet but unsure it it benefits T1s.
My regime is
Morning 8u levemir
Breakfast 2u Novorapid
Lunch 4u Novorapid
Tea 6u Novorapid
Evening 10u Levemir
Mine is quite different than what others posted on this forum thread - I would worry about that except my control is quite good even if my dosages are somewhat different - so here's mine - on a normal work day -
Morning/Breakfast 10u of Humulog
Lunch 10u of Humulog
Dinner 10u of Humulog
Evening 23u Lantus
(this varies by one or two units depending on what I'm eating)
Weekends (semi-fasting)
Morning 4u of Humulog (this deals with the stress of getting up - incrfeases my blood sugars a bit)
Evening Dinner snack 6u of Humulog (I don;t true fast, I have a small meal - snack)
Evening 23u of Lantus (this doasge seldom changes - when I first went on it I was taking 38u which was way too much and now take much less)
fortunately weight is not an issue for me - what I've tested today - 7.2 (2 hours after breakfast) 6.8 (2 hours after lunch) - pre dinner test will likely run between 6 - 8 and bedtime test usually runs between 4 - 8
weekends I usually stay in the 4s all day
