Spent this week trying to really keep my levels at an acceptable state. The start of the week was great mostly in range. Made a few tweaks and was all good. Kept snacks carb free and felt good.

Then Thursday things seemed to return to normal. On the way home I had a bag of crisps. Thought I will correct when I have my tea. Anyway due to a number of things didn't eat while 9 and had a couple of snacks. Cut a long story short sugar was up to 17.

Yesterday was spent unsuccessfully getting it down despite laying off the carbs. Again this morning I woke to 15. Corrected and skipped breakfast but just feeling a bit fed up that a couple of snacks can undue the hard work from earlier in the week.

Just wanted a place to moan really
 
@Hattonma Did you bolus for the crisps? I sometimes have crisps for a snack and bolus, and my blood sugar is fine approx 90 mins after eating them (which is when I test for snacks)
