| I attend Weight Watchers and highly recommend them. Having said that...I don't let the "point system" dictate my carb intake. So, if I need more carbs, I eat them. Or correct with them. That point system is not developed with insulin users in mind. We have to adapt to our priorities. So, give yourself a little break.
1) You can save those "extra points" in a sense, to allot toward lows. I just feel this is a little weird planning on lows when we are trying to prevent them...so my mind doesn't really work this way.
2) If you stick to the point system, but have to add carbs for corrections, it is usually so minimal that they really don't set you back on the scale. Maybe when you are really down to the last pound or so.
I usually cut back on my basal for a day or two...but go back to "normal" if I'm running high on very little food. Your basal shouldn't be too dependent on food intake unless you've used some of it toward food coverage. They tend to "blend" into each other easily.
Yes, I like the glucose tabs also. Saves on calories and fat. Too bad they don't have fiber! (Grins)  |
