[QUOTE="mrman, post: 472634, member: 40510"] Porridge and toast is alot of carbs for breakfast, with little fat. This means carbs are converted to sugar very quickly, with not much left to absorb after 2 hours,resulting in a post meal high,followed by a normal pre meal next reading. However, this may happen even with reduced carbs at breakfast as many people are more insulin resistant in mornings or, their body is raising sugar levels naturally. Could be he needs slightly less bolus for breakfast but an increased basal rate an hour before breakfast and an hour after breakfast. By increasing basal there would be more insulin working before meal is eaten.
