No, it’s not a secret code or a part of a criminal bulletin board from the latest episode of Homeland…it’s just the recipe book of a mathy type 1 diabetic (with messy handwriting).

this is amazing. i actually have no idea what any of this means, but i relate with great affection to recipes with lots of extra numbers written all over them. is it a history of your european blood sugars after eating the items at assorted times?
Hi Katy! When I was diagnosed I was 4 months pregnant. So when I was learning how to count carbs, I was also on a super-restricted calorie count (to keep the baby safe). In addition, I tracked fat, protein, and fiber of every ingredient and meal to figure out how/when to use extended boluses. Looks like chicken scratch :)
