Hi Todd,
I dont know what to make of your post.
I eat my own food and have to take care of a chronic pancreatitis and a
dolichocolon. Not your everyday common diabetes diet (if there even
*is* such an animal).
My insulin injections are to cover my intake of food.
For quite some years now I use little insulin each day.
In total 14-18 units a day.
I eat about 1800 kcal each day and am very careful.
My BMI is in the normal range.
