MUCH better control of carbs & cals with separate potatoes!

21:05 3 units Novorapid. Completely forgot to do this earlier. Only remembered when I looked at my Timesulin cap & saw it was just over 5.5 hours sine I last injected at 15:30. I was in such a hurry to dish up the lamb casserole: assailed by the delicious aroma! Will not test now as I know it’ll be high. I’m not unduly worried as the insulin will eventually do its thing: the night I ate out without insulin! Will be going to bed soon!

Edited to add:- obviously still not quite myself today! That twice I forgot to inject before meals today!
