[QUOTE="CheeseSeaker, post: 2681526, member: 531814"] [USER=89494]@Omnipod[/USER] - your Id suggests your a pump user - when its working right, you should be able to cope with most foods Ok without big peaks (assuming you're not eating high carb all the time. There are a list of reasons that may not be working for you: 1. Basal rates set wrongly 2. I:C ratio incorrect 3. not pre-bolusing 4. infrequent site rotation (so insulin is resisted) Low carb does help get round a problem with the insulin not working well (as you need less insulin to do its 'thing' and return you to normal levels) and has loads of other benefits - but if you're having trouble with high BGs as a pump user, the main problem could be somewhere other than just diet - just a thought.
