The dietician has asked me to start doing a daily food diary recording what I eat for each meal, the amount of carbohydrate in the food and the amount of insulin I gave myself. I also need to test my blood sugars before, 2 hours after and 4 hours after meals. This is to see whether the insulin ratio I am using is correct. I started with 2 units of insulin for every 10 grams of carbs I will eat.

Food Diary......
The dietician has asked me to start doing a daily food diary recording what I eat for each meal, the amount of carbohydrate in the food and the amount of insulin I gave myself. I also need to test my blood sugars before, 2 hours after and 4 hours after meals. This is to see whether the insulin ratio I am using is correct.
