[QUOTE="pleinster, post: 1338401, member: 221545"] Hi. To keep it brief, as I tend to ramble on...nothing has gone wrong. As you say yourself, your fish was accompanied by "high carbs". Your blood sugar therefore went up pretty high and was still high when you woke a few hours later. You seriously need to address the amount of carbs in your food. Questions...1] was the fish good oily stuff or was it in batter or breadcrumbs (ie. higher carbs) 2] how high in carbs were these "high carb" you ate? 3] why eat bread with your dinner (it will spike your blood sugar) 4] why increase insulin before bed, risking a hypo ? Bring levels down earlier by not eating high carb foods. 5] importantly - what was your blood sugar level before eating... if you don't know that, you cannot tell how much it has risen a couple of hours after you have eaten. I know it all seems a horrendous challenge, but you need to be more aware of what high carb foods do to you levels..and avoid them. [/QUOTE]
