I am on a Pen (Novorapid) Eat what you like, but take careful log notes and measure 2 and 3 hours after you have taken your insulin. Take note of your numbers. If you're where you want to be, write down what you ate and your dosage. I use my mobil phone under Contacts, then put my info in the Note section. I usually say my # (BG on the meter) + 10 for Pad Thai Noodles. Then I eat the same thing, at the same restaurant some weeks later. Measure the same, take the same insulin, double check, take notes and now you have cracked the nut for that particular chinese dish, or thai, or indian... I did not eat Thai for 3 years after I was diagnosed because of the unknown sugar content. I just guessed my way through it. Took a lot of insulin and measured... I do the same for all sorts of foods. Now I have my personal food list with insulin dosage for a particular meal. YOU CAN DO IT TOO!!
