[QUOTE="bobneil, post: 1388826, member: 375300"] Right, I understand that something like pizza will need a split dose due to the fat content, I just wasn't sure if a single slice of processed cheese would do anything - or if it had a role in this at all. Like you said, there's a lot of variables at play. I'm somewhat expecting a hypo this afternoon, and here's why: My fasting BG was 6.9. After some peanut butter toast, it's still at 6.9. I took 7 units before eating. The last 5 times I've had this exact same meal, I've had to take 8,9,10,10,10 units and 4 of the 5 times my post prandial BG was higher than before. In other words, I took 7 units to see if it would be enough when it wasn't before. So, seeing that it's equal before and after right now, that's a first. I've also noticed a trend where my post prandial readings are higher but then drop before my next meal. I can only safely guess that I'll go below 4 in the next 2 hours, but I've got fruit juice if needed. [/QUOTE]
