My advice based on my experiences and my opinions:

DON'T EAT ANY BREAD EVER. (also don't eat rice, potatos, cereals, fruit, pasta or any other SUPER-CARB food). Try to eat a max of 50-80 grams of carb per day.
USE RAPID ACTING INSULIN at meal times matched to your carb intake (Novolog).
USE a LONG ACTING INSULIN (e.g. Lantus) as a basal
