A Hole Lot Of Guessing

(I am a type-one diabetic and have been for 18 years. I am using an insulin pump, and to give myself correct amount of insulin, I have to calculate the amount of carbohydrates I have eaten. Note that carbohydrates represent a half of the weight of a piece of bread. This happens when I come home from school with hypoglycaemia when I’m 11.) 
 
Dad: “What have you eaten today? Did you give yourself the right amount of insulin?” 
 
Me: “Well, I ate a piece of bread and gave myself insulin for a third of its weight.” 
 
Dad: “Why?!” 
 
Me: “It had large holes!”
