[QUOTE="Chris1983, post: 2089845, member: 510159"] To be honest I've never been big on chocolates or cakes so it's a saving grace that I'm not really missing out on those things. Insulin wise I usually take 4 units with breakfast, 6 units with a large meal and 8 units if it's something I shouldn't really be eating (I have weak spot for McDonalds). It seems to be working so far, obviously things might change slightly if this is indeed a honeymoon period as Marie stated. A question I have: Lets say I take 6 units and the meal drives my levels up, lets say its 18 after 2 hours, can I take some more of the fast acting insulin to compensate it or is that a no no?
