[QUOTE="birchy66, post: 925570, member: 85138"] I've been type 1 for just under 3 years and have different ratios for each meal time. Breakfast 1 unit Novorapid to 10g carbs. Lunch 1.5 units to 10g carbs. Evening meal 2 units to 10g carbs. Depending on my pre-meal BG reading I might add 1 or 2 extra units of Novorapid. I also take into account my expected level of activity after meals. That's why my evening meal dose is 2 units because I am less active, which seems to work. My nightly basal dose of Levemir is constant at 17 units which holds my BG steady till morning. [/QUOTE]
