[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1981110, member: 53162"] I'd agree that Pizza is a tricky one to bolus for because of the fat, so I get the pizza effect when I try to eat it, so go low within 1-2 hours and then go high after 2-3 hours, as fat delays the carb absorption, crisps/chips are a better food choice, and also depends on what your BG levels are doing too but would suggest a bolus shot to cover your chips if your BG levels look ok. Yes buddy up with a pal who knows what to spot if you go low and will look out for you. Also if it's causing you stress then go easy, drink water, stay sober-ish or don't drink at all, i've had some great nights without alcohol and the added bonus of waking up without a sore head, it's fine to do either, just make sure you feel comfortable whatever you choose to do :) Diet coke is fine, no sugar :) [/QUOTE]
