[QUOTE="Lulu9101112, post: 1707507, member: 409636"] Do you mean you have to guess carbs as the easiest way to remember is: (Some stuff i just remmeber like fruit) 1. Add carbs up it always says on the back of the packet of what your having how many carbs your having. 2. Divide by your carb ratio For example at lunch i had: 1. Sandwhich= 12g of carb per slice, 2 slices so = 24g 2. Small Mandarin= 12g of carb The filling in my sandwhich was tuna and mayo but there's hardly any carb in that so i don't include that So 24g+12= 36g of carb in total. So i divide by 7 because of my carb ratio for lunch so 36 divde by 7 is approxamitly 5 as 5*7= 35 and i didn't need to correct as blood was 6.3. So there for 5 units. [/QUOTE]
