One of the things I track with my insulin spreadsheet is my correction factor. Also known in the diabetes world as the rule of 1800. Amazing on how well that works. The rule of 1500 doesn’t always work for me, but that’s another blog post.
Anyway, I noticed this morning that I was approaching 43. My pump is programmed for a correction factor of 42. It’s currently an hour and some odd minutes before lunch and I am hungry! Did a check and I’m just a tad over 100.
Time to break out one of the chocolate candy sticks. I love them. Less than 100 calories, about 10 grams of carb, and all the taste of a real chocolate bar.
I also need to remember to buy more.
Means the TDD is still going down.
Plus I think I’m losing weight. I’m not tracking it, but I am at the lowest I’ve been in a while.
And hey, I’m not gaining like I was when they first gave me back my classes!
