I don't know if you have explained it, but why do you get the Lantus in 2 times?

About the disability is the thing, but for trying ... I granted me 12%, let's go ... but I have no complication or lack of control.

Aaandres then looked at the link, but to me the endocrine tells me that my diet is ok, I take 3.5 at breakfast, 5 food (maximum) 3 dinner, plus 1 at lunch and another snack (not every day) let's go13.5 The day that more like and weight about 55kg at 4gr per kg I get 28 and that I am breastfeeding and increases the needs up to 700 calories a day ...

If the minimum daily calories is 1000 calories, you are talking about 1700 daily.It is recommended that half come from hydrates, that is 850cal.
1g of hydrates contributes 4 calories, then 850/4 = 212, 5g, that is, 21.25 rations of HC.

There is something that does not fit me ... Do you tell rations like 15g or as 10g?If you accounts like 15g, it does go well: 212, 5/15 = 14.1 rations which are what you take, @ica.

Of 10 grams, the truth is that of a little fuel about the ration of hydrates of 10 and 15. even to a diet of 1000 calories for an adult woman to me it seems very scarce

And to me!That is why I do not understand that you only take those hydrates.If you do well, perfect.That's what it is about.
My son is made a stick taking those 24 rations.

@Hades40 Great If you have returned to Normaglycemia, to see if good controls continue.
@aaandres and @tica, still does not match the amount of hydrates.I insist that in the last revision the endo lowered the rations to Angela argued that the growth has already finished and does not need so many.In fact, I took 5-1-7-4-6 and/ now take 4-1-5-3-4... Pesa 52 kg.According to that rule, I would have to take 26, and if the calculation does not fail, it takes between 17 and 19 ... and my husband weighs approx.80 kg.Take approximately 5-5-5 .... Come on, if you take the 40 recommended 40 it is put as a ball.Nor eating and having the accounts come out: -o

I don't know, @velia.From what you say, your daughter was before with 23 rations, practically like my son who has two years less but is male and weighs almost 50kg.So it seems that this number of portions is not crazy.He is made a stick, and is not especially active (on the contrary).
Forgetting the formula of the grams of HC per kg of weight and doing it by daily calories, taking into account a 50% contribution by hydrates, it comes out similar.
Let's see if someone else tells us how many rations take, young people and adults, to have more references.

I must be very common.Like much more than my son, I am totally sedentary, and I do not enter the "ball" category (yes, a unrecoverable brewer).
