[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 2127167, member: 256617"] Thought I would have a read as I like powerlifting. Anyway maybe this is for quick reference what you were referring to: [URL]https://ketogenicdiabeticathlete.wordpress.com/[/URL] [B]Glycemic Results For August 2019[/B] The table below shows my mean blood glucose (BG), standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), calculated HbA1c, body weight, and mean insulin dose totals for August 2019. You can see I am close to achieving both normal mean (average) blood sugar and variability of blood sugar (standard deviation). Now that I am at goal body weight, I might be able to achieve my blood sugar goals in September. If not, perhaps changing Lantus to Tresiba, which is scheduled to begin in November, will do the trick. [B][COLOR=#ff0000]Also note the increase in insulin dose that accompanies a larger body weight even when calculated as IU/kg/day.

Still, this is a relatively low daily insulin requirement as most with T1DM require about 0.80 IU/kg/day which was my insulin requirement prior to starting regular exercise and a low carbohydrate diet.
