  • Carb counting

    I’m releasing my diabetes & starting on care counting. This is basing on set doses of insulin.

    Tonight, as I’m trying to get through the food I have left. This is particularly the dried food in the cupboards, I have come to terms that I’ll never get the motivation to cook. Or want to eat.

    I have done spaghetti bolognaise, couscous, lasagna, lentils and sushi (lots of sushi rice, lentils, couscous) & more left in the freezer.

    I portioned out my Japanese dumplings tonight, the amount of tonight’s dumplings, however, was pitiful.

    Carbohydrates needed (for me I’m 1unit of insulin = 10g carbohydrates)

    % carbohydrate in 100g (most food has this in “nutritional information” found at the back)

    X 100 (This ratio is just an average for me, so depending on your doses & how much you eat it may vary. )
