The ratio stays the same, assuming it's correct (from what you say, your's isn't. Too much insulin).
What you do is add a {correction} factor for the amount of points you want to drop. For example, you test out at 200, and your goal is 90. You want to drop 110 points plus covering what you are going to eat. You'd use your correction ratio to figure how much insulin you need to correct.
If your ratio is 50, then you need 2 units of insulin PLUS the regular ratio for your food. This sounds complicated, but it becomes 2nd nation. Do you test and correct between meals now?
