[QUOTE="Kristin251, post: 1512872, member: 240838"] I did just recently because my fastings were much higher recently. We were eating dinner around 7 and I started taking lantus earlier. Now I've moved dinner to 6:30 ( to be done eating) and lantus 10:30. Fastings came down and not sure why but I started testing during the night. Doesn' t lantus peak around 6 hours? That's when I was noticing the drop. Around 4:30. I'm not sure what's going on but will try the avocado again of course. I have tried going without and get a 40-50 point rise. Prior to moving lantus and dinner further apart I wa ps taking three units and still rising. No idea if I was dropping but based on the rise I'd bet not and could have probably used it. If you could shed some light that would be great !! I hypothesis that lantus was being used on my food as I was probably still digesting at bed which I'd prefer not. I had a thread going and some said a high fat dinner will give them a higher fasting so I lowered fat but of course was hungry. Can't win right? So upped the fat again but kept the space of 4 hours. Funny as well. Lunch I was 92. My half unit usually takes me up to abloyt 100. Having a hungry day so ate more avocado. Next test 82. What's up with it?? More avocado and I go lower. And past experience says I'll stay lower until dinner. Help haha [/QUOTE]
