| Fantastic post. Great job Martin Janiczek! Fellow T1D here. Please keep posting because it is useful and interesting! I am a programmer and more glad to help you in any way with databases, SQL, Python, R, C#. Resources that helped me achieve excellent control of my type 1 diabetes. My TIR is 95-100% and lowered my A1C from 11.9 to 4.1 (not low carb, I’m high carb in fact): Fat and protein in meals require insulin 1-2 hours after eating via extend bolus (aka temp basal). Learn how to post-bolus (give yourself insulin AFTER meals) “Fat-Protein Units” (FPU). Fat x .09 x 8 ÷ I:C = units of insulin
Protein x .04 x 8 ÷ I:C = units of insulin Sum both. Then dose insulin as a temp basal (extended bolus) over n-hours per the Warsaw Method time schedule linked below. And continue to pre-bolus for carbs like usual 15-30 minutes before you eat (data driven approach is pre-bolus and eat meal AFTER blood glucose values on CGM trend down for 3-4 consecutive readings) https://waltzingthedragon.ca/diabetes/nutrition-excercise/re... https://drlogy.com/calculator/warsaw-method Starting point to determine your insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio: 300 ÷ Total Daily Insulin Dose
