Anyone have good tips for eating potato chips [Type 1 Diabetes]?

I know the high fat content is probably what’s giving me a rise later on (like 1-2 hours later). I’m on the omnipod but have never figured out the extended boluses.

Like when i eat something with white flour I just know 2 hours later I need an extra lil bolus and set an alarm. so I’m thinking i may need to do the same w potato chips?

If you’ve used the extended bolus… how the heck do you use it?

TYIA!

Look on YouTube. It will show you better than someone can explain it.

Extend is great, but just give an extra unit 1 hour after you finish them.
