I dont count cheese either, only count milk if its like huge cappucinno or latte.

well, went up to 12.4 last night, so had to correct, woke to 7.4, cant complain.


Having boiled eggs and nimble bread as that is v low in carb, have a good day all! 🙂

were you saying that you reduce the amount of insulin you take if there is a lot of cheese in the meal? I got a bit confused so just sadi you are wrong 😉

I went to bed at 5.5 and woke to 7.9, there's no way my lantus ran out because I take it at bed time, Ive tried taking more but I just hypo. Why can't my levels just stay the same? grr. Better than usual though I guess hehe.

Haha... Noooo... I was saying that I counted the weight of the macaroni cheese as plain macaroni which of course has carbs while the cheese (which would've added a fair bit of weight!) doesn't so over estimated the carb counted by quiiiiiiite a lot! Hehe... Oh dear...
