But I'm rarely that gluttonous.  That was the largest meal I'd eaten in more than a year; I usually eat 100g or less CHO per meal. Quote:

Feh. I need to get off my buns and try to score some diluent. I really want to whip up some U-25, U-30, or U-33. (I use syringes because I mix; dilution seems the best way for finer granularity.)
It seems that U-100 is better suited for resistant type 2 folks. For type 1 (especially pediatric!) use, one unit is just a bit much...
