[QUOTE="azure, post: 1201286, member: 39639"] It will depend what your ratio is [USER=160586]@MyNameIsAlex[/USER] We all have our own ratios for insulin to carbs. Do you count carbs? Can you ask your diabetes nurse what your ratio is? Having said that, pizza is quite carby anyway, so is hard to bolus correctly for. I don't know how big your slices were, but I find that I have a maximum amount of carbs that I can eat in one meal and still be able to get my blood sugar in range afterwards. If your meal was very high carb, you may need to watch your blood sugar for some hours afterwards. Be careful not to over correct and go too low. [/QUOTE]
