[QUOTE="Skim, post: 1627796, member: 432250"] As others have said 1. Dawn Phenomenon 2. For me morning ratios are less.. ie I need more insulin 3.On a low carb diet your liver will convert protein to glucose.. so be mindful of protein. Supplement diet with fats to get a good calorie intake if your ldl-p is good 4. Eating even newspaper will increase bs. Body detects expansion of stomach and releases some insulin plus glucose from liver ie primes itself.. so as we don't produce insulin bs will rise. So even if a meal is low carb or no carb b.s. can rise. 5. Use a cgm if you can afford it 6. If carb counting use something like exactmeals.com It also has setting for converting some protein to carb when calc carbs [/QUOTE]
