[QUOTE="iHs, post: 839824, member: 8799"] [USER=176262]@leedoak[/USER] because of the way twice daily insulin affected my bg levels, I Found my best control was to eat carb the little and often way and not 3 meals only per day. I usually had a small snack mid morning and mid afternoon as failure to eat a snack would result in a hypo by the time 3hrs had gone after eating a main meal. My bg was usually around 6 to 7mmol before a main meal so I just adjusted the carb so that my bg was about 8 to 9mmol mid way and adjusted the carb snack so that I could avoid the hypo feeling and be ok till the next main meal. Eating little and often means not feeling hungry and bodyweight can be kept ok as long as the insulin dose is not set too high requiring more carb to be eaten than ideal. Twice daily insulin is easy to comply with although it doesnt suit some people. [/QUOTE]
