[QUOTE="Deleted member 527103, post: 2357280"] A few ideas - have you done a basal test to check your basal requirements are correct? - sounds as if you bolus is taking a long time to work. Do you pre-bolus before meals? - have you asked about changing from NovoSluggish to Fiasp which works faster? - have you read about the limitations of Libre? For example, it is less accurate for the first 24 to 48 hours (many people insert it a day or two before starting it), it is less accurate high or low readings so, whilst it is ok for bolusing for meals, it is not great to use to calculate corrections, ... - replacement options for potatoes are other vegetables. Some people eat roasted celeraic or swede or squash. Or just eat more of the non-carbs on your plate instead of potatoes. [/QUOTE]
