Message: <blockquote data-quote="DexcomGavin" data-source="post: 2644590" data-attributes="member: 580787">What you describe is pretty typical of my blood sugar profile if I have high carbohydrate based evening meal. I've tried all sorts of food and insulin combinations and none of them are especially successful. The best solution I have found for preventing night highs is to cut back on my evening meal carbs. That's not say I go to be hungry, I just make up with something else. If I follow this strategy I generally flat line overnight, even potentially dropping into hypo by the end of the night but its nothing dramatic, maybe 4.6/4.5......I found this out by chance, my wife was trying to lose weight and was following Joe Wicks weight loss plan which was a combination of exercise and diet. His diet has a reduced amount of carbs in it, and whilst I wasn't exercising or eating the amounts he recommends for weight loss, I was eating the food.</blockquote>
