[QUOTE="PeteN11, post: 2313585, member: 516926"] Please bear in mind that any honeymoon period is individual to each of us. There is no set period that the pancreas keeps on giving. Mine stopped the day I went to A&E and hasn't worked since. Even when it does still work it does not give a regular dose on a regular basis and cannot be relied upon to help out as it once used to. Making mistakes is OK as long as you check your BG on a regular basis and compensate accordingly. Once any honeymoon is over you will be able to dose more accurately but do not worry too much if you do not. I have done a carb counting course but now (3 years in) tend to rely on eyeballing as most of us tend to eat the same stuff week in week out. Good Luck. [/QUOTE]
