end-of-honeymoon roller coaster

Pancake is coming out of honeymoon and we're trying to find the new correct dosing ratios. Yesterday we were traveling and didn't know the carbs in our restaurant foods. Here are his outlandish BG measurements:

  • breakfast time: 182
  • lunchtime: 413 (oops!)
  • late afternoon: 69 (oops oops!)
  • bedtime: 225

And a tip for others going through a transition: carbs magnify mistakes. If the carb ratio is wrong, higher carbs means a bigger error in bolus. Choosing foods that are a little lower in carbs makes the transition period a little less wild.
