[QUOTE="Rokaab, post: 2509015, member: 450212"] Well think of it this way: If you have 80 carbs in one go you take the insulin for that 80 carbs And if you have 80 carbs but split into 60 and then another 20 carbs an hour or so later, that still totals 80 carbs so you would still need enough insulin to cover that 80 carbs (though split into doses for 60 and 20 at the relevant time) Obviously some things get digested at different rates, sometimes insulin can seemingly get absorbed at a different rate so you may need to experiment on timing [/QUOTE]
