humalog diet question

[Yankeebstrd]

I'm currently using humalog 6 iu pwo. I do the shake and a spotless meal 1 hour after the shake. My diet remains clean for the next 4 hours. How critical is your diet before and after the active period of the slin??

Avoid fats within an hour before injection, which should be no problem, as you'll be lifting. After the slin activity period, your diet is what it would normally be, based on your goals....insulin no longer factors in.....although, you could argue that you could consume less carbs than normal and be fine.
