Carbs counting

I agree with the above. I spilt my bolus dose.. 30% about 20 mins before and 70% one hour after. I had one of my worst hypos after a pasta dish in a restaurant! Couldn’t get my head round it!

Also, just because you have 60g of pasta doesn’t mean it is 60g of carbs. The carb content is often lower than the actual product weight. Good luck with the counting!
