I remember my last dinner before I was diagnosed... a Denny's Lumberjack Breakfast (eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, pancakes, full sugar syrup) and an order of Chili Cheese Fries and about 5 sodas.........I was hungry about an hour later....guess that should have been a clue?
I have the same problem with carbs as you do...you would think that just taking enough insulin to match the food would take care of it, but if I eat considerably less, it's like I have to throw my whole basal program out the window.
And as for shopping...I had to go back to the same store 3 Saturdays in a row last month....everytime I would gather all the clothes I wanted to try and get to the Changing Room, my blood sugar would be around 50, and I would have to stop and get food! They should have shopping in the olympics, it is so strenuous!
