Insulin to carb ratio

[aHarness]

Curious, how much protein and fats you eat a day?

Protein is 300. Fats honestly unsure, I don’t track it as I do not add any fats beyond what I get from my eggs in M1 and beef in other meals.

Curious if there is a downside to going over the amount of carbs needed to not go hypo, assuming one is still within their dietary needs?

If someone’s carb total for day is 800, and they decided to have say 300g carbs preworkout with only 10 units of insulin, is there any issue with this?

Somewhat similar to my situation

i use 20iu pre, but my carb intake pre/intra/post is easily 300+ on any given day

He is claiming 300 pre, 300, post and 50 intra. That is 650.

Not a monster unfortunately, just on my feet all day. 300g carbs pre 300g post, 150g M1 and 150g last meal, 50g intra. This is for training days of course.

But indeed I do own one and check my morning fasted blood glucose! It is the most expensive Walmart brand one, not sure if I should get something better.

Hold up, is this immediate (within 30m-1hr) for pre and post carb totals?

Plus 150g in meal1 and 150g in last meal , so 950g total !!
and 300g protein , that’s 5000 calories alone

Definitely closer to 1:30-2 hours.

I’m nothing impressive bro and I’m not trying to pretend I am or anything by “flexing” this carb amount, just a guy who gets 20k+ steps a day and is trying to grow lol. It’s a bitch man, but I love this hobby of bodybuilding.

Plan is to eventually get out of this line of work though, taking online courses currently for something that can hopefully have me working from home in the future.

@slesh @SouthernMuscle i will PM you both a pic

Why not just eat more fats? Twice the calories as carbs if your concerned about burning so many calories a day, fats are energy dense!
