[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 1846992, member: 93179"] That's fine if you're a T1 or T2 on insulin, but many of us T2s have to control our glucose by our diet (or diet and oral meds) alone. This was one of the first patterns I discovered after I got my meter, and in fact it made me decide to split my metformin dose to morning and evening, instead of just evening. (Though now I know that this shouldn't - and actually didn't - make much difference though!) Robbity ETA And yes, eating more carbs can often spike my levels too depending on quantity, but so too can stress, illness, pain - and these generallly more so than the extra carbs can! :banghead::banghead: [/QUOTE]
