Well i have had to change my ratios for different times of the day in the morning it 1:5 lunch is 1:9 and diner is 1:11 i cannot keep the same ratio through out the day because i tend to run high in the afternoon and low at night so i take a higher dose in the morning to overlap with my afternoon dose. for me counting carbs and using the ratios has improved my control so much
