It has only been in the last 4 years that I really carb counted and adjusted my insulin doses. My consultant wouldn't even put me on a pump back then as I didn't check my BS levels often and didn't carb count! Now, I use My Fitness Pal app to help with my carb counting and I use this every day. My daily carb intake is currently around 50g. This has improved my BS levels as well as cutting down on the number of hypos I have. I never did the DAFNE course but I have been living in Australia for the last two years and did a similar course called SMART1E. I found this very useful, especially now using a pump.</p></blockquote><p></p>
