[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1678586, member: 355878"] I hope that you get some lower blood glucose readings with that amount of carbs - but I can't eat anything like that amount of carbs and get good readings. The chapati or roti is wheat - which spikes my blood glucose, a salad should not have 40 gm of carbs in it - mine are about 20 gm at the most, I would not eat 20 gm of carbs from fruit, as that spikes my blood glucose very fast. My usual intake of carbs is 40 to 50 gm a day in order to have normal blood glucose. I realize that eating habits and conventions vary greatly, but your levels are worryingly high even with the insulin. Saying that, though, you take the insulin in the evening, so eating lower carb in the day and then taking insulin and going to sleep is a concern too. [/QUOTE]
