,

Let me make two suggestions. They worked for me, they may work for you.

First, start a log of the food that you eat and your blood sugar readings

and insulin dosage. I keep mine in Excel. I use the following headings:

date, meal, food eaten, blood sugar reading, insulin dosage, restaurant, and

comments. On page two I keep the following columns: cook, food, carb

value, insulin required for that item, and comments. This log will give you

the historical data that you need in order to track your progress and

determine what insulin to take for a proposed meal.

The second suggestion is this. I eat the same food for breakfast every day.

I also eat the same lunch every day Monday through Friday. This allows me

to determine the amount of insulin needed and have the correct reading going

into dinner - my one variable meal.

Try it.
