[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2135489, member: 451727"] Hi borderter, don't be too hard on yourself, it sounds like you're getting it right most of the time. I tend to eat lowish carb even though I have insulin but when I want something not so low carb I will have a small portion of it so that I can manage it with less insulin, ergo less room for wild swings. Or once a month or so I might have a high carb meal but stick to a known portion or type of food which I have had before so can make a fairly good guess at how much insulin I'll need. It really is trial and error but if you treat your food as though you are on a constant diet (I'm guessing you do this by your use of the term 'eating properly and counting every carb') then you can guarantee ALL you will want is something you think you can't have. I know everyone is different of course but if you mess things up just try to move on. x [/QUOTE]
