[QUOTE="smidge, post: 349464, member: 29301"] Hey Jonty Well, that's not as black and white as you might think, because I low carb. In terms of carb, it's about 1:9, but I do have to add the odd unit or two for protein along the way if I have a very low-carb or no carb meal. So bacon and eggs for example I'd jab 1.5 units even though there's only about 1g carb in that. Overall, I eat about 50g carb a day, so you can see that at 1:9, I should only need about 5.5 units Apidra, but I actually have to take around 8 on average to cover the non-carb elements. Hope that makes sense! Smidge [/QUOTE]
