2D not 3D

Back to Basic Blocks

2D shapes are usually happier than 3D (because they're better drawn)

School Graphs Are Useful?!

In Maths, we learn about graphing.

Usually it’s for 2 things that change together. Like temperature & ice-cream sales.

I use graphs for insulin against change in BGL

VS

CHANGE in BGL is important.

I want to know what amount of insulin (for a specific meal) will give me a ZERO change in BGL (i.e. where the diagonal line cuts through the horizontal axis).

I note what I see as dots on the graph. Eventually I get a better and better ‘line’ connecting the dots.

Sometimes, a dot might land in a strange spot. I still note it, but my main aim is to get a line that fits the most dots (I won’t worry if it can’t fit all of them).

Lastly, I find the graph good for correcting hypers too.
