I've been working on this for a long time and I'm pretty proud of the work I've done on this simple calculator. It started when I was browsing through the TAGgers UNITED group and noticed a lot of people wanting a program that would calculate TAG and since there wasn't one out there that I could find I thought I'd write one. Once I got started I decided to just calculate everything and this is what I came up with. I recently updated the program so that it now keeps track of changing ratios. Not just insulin and carbohydrate ratios but ALL ratios. If your target blood sugar is different in the morning and in the afternoon this program will remember the different values and the times that those values change. I use it every day and am super proud of the work that I've done. Please give it a look and let me know what you think and PLEASE pass it on if you know of anyone who might benefit from it.
Unfortunately there may be an annoying pop-up when the page loads but you just have to click anywhere outside of the pop-up to make it disappear. (nothing is "free" anymore)
I have considered tracking "Insulin on Board" but that seems pretty complicated so that might not happen for some time.
Interesting app. I appreciate your keeping the ratios as inputs, I don't bolus for fat at all but I do bolus for protein. Perhaps in the next version you could have it remember the factors between sessions?
Thanks gardian. I looked into that and you ALMOST had it right. The class is called "popup" and it is now "disabled". Still darkens the screen a little when the page loads but that's no big deal. Thanks a lot.
I'm not sure what you mean by remember the factors. It will remember all of your inputs as long as you set those values. Are you referring to the output values?
this looks very interesting and, at least to me, very confusing. i am no math wizard by any long shot, and cannot comprehend knowing all of these ratios, et al. i like enjoying the food that i eat and the "Wizard" program on my pump allows for me to have to do very little by way of calculations so that i can relax and take in a good meal w/out much worry.if you could actually program my pump for me w/ all your calculations, i would definately put you up to the challenge.
i am either a complete idiot, or i am just a very confused D. Thx, though
