[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 926458, member: 21149"] Hi. You don't need to weigh your food most of the time. Look at the ingredients on the packet or if doing your own cooking, weigh or estimate. With insulin a lot of the time you need to guesstimate the carbs but over time your guesses become more accurate. Use the meter if in doubt afterwards to learn and avoid a hypo. Although it is a shock at first you will find with experience it will become much easier. Can I assume you are on Basal/Bolus regime and carb-counting to adjust the dose for each meal? [/QUOTE]
