When it comes to food and insulin, I just use the force.
What is my BG, which direction is my BG going, how quickly am I going up or down, how much insulin is left in me, how active have I been, what kind of food is it, how have I been responding to insulin today, how long before I eat, will I have food available to cover a low later, what is for dessert, how hungry am I, how do I want to space my bolus for timing, what would my pancreas do it it was working correctly, how slow is this dang waitress at the restaurant…
As I have shared with you before, bolus calculators don’t look at things like that!
The best bolus calculator DM has, is the one sitting on her neck.
