[QUOTE="Scott-C, post: 1960461, member: 374531"] Just wondering about the wider context in which it was eaten, [USER=467598]@Indy1282[/USER] ? Some possibilities spring to mind: Maybe early morning, when many of us get a "foot on floor" rise anyway just by getting up, so perhaps the insulin was dealing not only with the carbs in the bar, but also the foot on floor rise? Or maybe if eaten as a mid-afternoon snack, bg was maybe on an upward trend anyway from a possibly underbolused lunch? One of the things I've started paying a lot more attention to since gettting libre is not just the straight carb/bolus count for that particular meal/snack, but also looking at what's been happening more generally in the last few hours, whether level is trending up or down or is level, and how much IOB I've still got working. Taking those other factors into account can radically alter the picture. [/QUOTE]
