HUNGRY HORSE - WISH ME LUCK

[mum2westiesGill]

So tonight we're eating out at a Hungry Horse restaurant. I'm going to have the Ultimate Big Combo meal but as a main course for 1 person. I'm going to do my usual of testing on MySugr app then after I've finished eating go back on the app and re enter the test result then I can enter the carbs eaten and get the bolus advice. If I don't eat it all then I will maybe reduce not the carbs but my humalog by 2 units. I will then test 4 hours after for my bedtime test

Have a good evening, just be careful with the carb count. If you eat the whole thing that’s 218g carbs not the 109g you have selected in the app. With a carb count that high you might need to split the dose as it’s a lot to take in one go.

Hi @Lucyr I think 218g is for a full serving ie for 2 people
1/2 serving - for 1 person
1/4 serving - for 4 people
1/3 serving - for 3 people
Full serving - for 2 people

You said ' I'm going to have the Ultimate Big Combo meal but as a main course for 1 person' that indeed would be 218g carbs if that is what you meant. It also looks fairly fatty which I have heard affects some people in how they metabolise the carbs .

What I'm meaning is I want it as a main course but for 1 person so meaning half of each thing ie 2 scampi not 4, 2 onion rings not 4 etc - that's how much of each thing I'll be eating of each thing anyway lol

The sharer for 2 people would be 4 scampi so 2 each etc

How did it go, we have Hungry Horse restaurant & food is rubbish, cheap but quality & quantity is pitiful.
