[QUOTE="phdiabetic, post: 1693198, member: 317494"] I find that fries ALWAYS seem to need way more insulin than I would bolus for normal potato (or for my mum's home cooked chips). 60g per bun seemed a little high in my opinion (I would give 30g) but it really depends on the bun. If you wanted to improve your numbers for next time, try only having a burger, or only having fries, and seeing what happens. That way it's easier to see what's going wrong - if you are fine after the burger but super high after the fries, you know you bolused incorrectly for the fries, for example. Once you figure them out separately, you can eat them together. [/QUOTE]
