Food Diary ??

I am told the only dumb question is the one that is not asked, and I'm having a little trouble with the 'goal' setting.  Trouble is I don't have a clue what my ratio's should be since I am on insulin and my carb consumption is different than a person with T2.  If I have a "low" for whatever reason, I have to eat carbs in the form of glucose tablets or juice in order to raise my blood sugar.  How does that figure in the goal setting?

I haven't used that, so I'm not certain. I'm sure Goals can be revised/updated from time to time. It would be best to add for the amount of carbs (in the glucose tabs) and enter it based on the number of low episodes that you might expect, say in a week or month.

For those of us, me, that are technically challenged, sometimes navigating these websites are daunting.  I'm working with the nurse at the Endo's office on how better to avoid these lows as they are not fun nor desirable.  I'm also concerned about the 'recommended' amount of protein and fat as I already have kidney disease.  I do see the nephrologist today, so I will ask him about the recommended amounts.
