Right our experiment has started. We used lamb mince and the only carbs in the bolognaise was the chopped tinned tomatoes but I haven't bolused for them at all as Jessica has been constantly hypo for 2 days now.

So we decided to try fresh spaghetti, mmmm delicious.

She was 7.7 mmol to start with so good starting point. She had 215 grams which made 58 carbs.

For those that know what I'm talking about I did a 60/40 dual wave over 2 1/2 hours.

I'm going to test hourly starting at 7 pm.
 
Alex was 7.7 pre-meal.
Spag was wholemeal which came to 76.7 carbs dry weight.

Mince had 3 tins tomatoes and 2 beef oxo cubes - so guessed at 8 cho for this.

Tablespoon cheese on top - guessed at adding 2 cho for delayed grease effect.

Total was 86.7cho and have done a Dual Wave 30/70 over 5 hours! Completely different to you Adrienne!
It will be so interesting to see both results as they both started on 7.7! I suspect you will have got it right though!😉

Will report all results when i have them.🙂Bev
 
Just posted this in results but thought I'd copy over here too to avoid comments in the results thread:

I had to do mine last night as didn't think I'd be free tonight, so....

Used quorn mince and a ready done jar of sauce. Used pasta shells instead of spaghetti, 70g of carbs.

Pre meal: 6.5
1hr: 6.1
2hr: 7.2
3hr: 8.2
4hr: 6.2
morning: 5.4

Rather pleased with that, much better than I expected.
 
Wow Aymes - they are great results! Can i just ask if you did a split injection or normal up front bolus? I think it would help others to understand.🙂Bev
 
Bolused the whole amount at the start of the meal, evening ratio of 1.5 units per CP (10g carbs).

Should add, it never usually works out this well, I'm not Northerner...😉
 
Damnit. I forgot I had to post my results tonight and had a Fudge bar after going to buy my mushrooms. I was already high 😱 😱
 
I've had my spag bol - homemade with tinned toms, mushrooms, carrots, onions etc. It was delish! 100g of wholewheat spaghetti and 11 units NR - started on 4.3. I did have a chocolate digestive afterwards, is that allowed?😱
 
Urgh, trust it to all go wrong the day I'm telling everyone my numbers 🙄 My levels this week have been so good but tonight...

Tested whilst cooking because I knew I was high: 20.1 So I took 8 units to bring me down a bit. Tested before tea, about 15mins later and I was 18.8.

Anyway... I made mine with quorn mince and TVP, 2 tins of tomato, 500g mushrooms, onions, garlic, tomato puree, lots of herbs... (i'm going to freeze some for another day!) I used 75g of linguine (That I mistook for spaghetti, but it turns out we dont have any lol) - It was white, not wholewheat. I then took 16 units after eating.

So far then:

Before: 18.8

:(

wow good no steff ! mine are not looking good cos i started at 10.8 !!!!
 
Wow, great results coming through :

I used tinned toms, lamb mince, herbs, mushroom, onion and garlic and fresh spaghetti, plus she had a chocolate mousse of 11 cho for pudding :

Dual wave 60/40 for 2 1/2 hours

Before she was 7.7

7 pm 6.6 eek, going down
8 pm 11.3 eek going up - can't bolus as not 2 hours after the dual has fnished.

Will keep checking hourly. Want to know if the 11.3 is the peak time or will she still keep going up.
 
An hour later - 17.2 🙄

I think i'll re-do the test when I'm starting on a more normal level.
 
enter chef Rossi😉

I poured myself a glass of red, then looked for some ingredients!
For some generic "meat" couldn't see any magic mushrooms, found 155grams of dried spag, the meat had already been cooked to some kind of chiili-esq thing, I added some tinned toms, and 'erbs, also steamed a courgette and some runner beans, trying to eat more veg!

My carbcounting/guessing would say 80 grams of carbs, so jabbed 5 units NR lets see what happens. Started at 8 odd and will test tonight, unlike most nights, so will post results in a bit, now on a nice chilean :D
