[QUOTE="squishee, post: 145449, member: 26882"] Hi iHs, thanks for replying! I actually had my carb:insulin ratio worked out by my dietician about a year ago, but found that I was getting a lot of hypos so kind of ditched it... :oops: I didn't realise (no one ever told me!) that the ratio can differ at different times of the day. How would I work that out? I'm loathe to reduce the carbohydrate amounts I eat at breakfast as I find that leaves me very hungry about 2 hours before lunch, but if I snack at any point after breakfast I find then I don't want lunch at all :( What's concerning me more is the fact that a) this is a recent development for me since splitting my Lantus, and b) it doesn't follow any discernable pattern. I tend to go in cycles with my breakfast - the same thing all week, then something different at weekends as I have more time on a morning - and sometimes I have perfect days, when I haven't done/eaten anything different! :roll: [/QUOTE]
