Bread is about 15g of carbs per slice, at least store bought in North America is. That would be 3 units for me at lunch but 7 at breakfast and 6 at dinner. No carbs in ham or butter.

A few people do inject for protein too. Generally they take much less, and if on a pump, extend it out longer. Most of us ignore 'regular' sized portions.

Rememeber everyone is different. My doses would kill people. You need to find your own.
