[QUOTE="Kristin251, post: 1415694, member: 240838"] Awe. Thanks [USER=196960]@ickihun[/USER] !! That means a lot. I'm happy if it helps! I think maybe being have been through every phase and anal about it I have figured loads of things out that never made sense. No being on insulin I can easily see what macros do what. Without starting insulin I never would have known how much dairy and saturated fats require so much more insulin and keep me higher much longer. Some foods like nuts and dairy don't raise me but my insulin is much less effective then and into the next meal and sometimes next day!!! Same with over eating protein. That lasts forever to get back to being sensitive. I'm not saying I never eat these foods but they not only require extra insulin butnextra boluses. Which of course is extra finger sticks. Some days it's worth it and some days not. I've become pretty disciplined so I just eat my food and be done with it. I've had some on and off neuropathy and blurry eyes to name a few. Keeping my bs and insulin low and steady has improved these symptoms. So really, a piece of cake and then blurry eyes and tingling feet is not such a treat to ME [/QUOTE]
